Darkness shrouding all around me, what was once a bright summers day had turned into a murky haze of mystery. I could still see but when I was like this in the morning the perceptions of everything around changed. Sometimes I could stand there for hours waiting for something…something to free me from the imprisonment of my mind. But I always knew I had to do something myself one heavenly item would bring into the world of the living and in my current state acquiring it would be a chore. I stumbled to the door leaning on the handle with all my body weight to open what seemed like a still giant. As the door flung open I crashed forward smashing into the wall, carrying on I locked my mind onto making it down the stairs. “Ok” I thought I was at the top of the stairs, the first milestone had been reached now I had the brave the dark depths of below. Who knows what lay down there in that wasted land of horror. But I knew, I knew I had to get down there as when I cleared the evil only heaven would be in my path.
I dragged my leg down the first step with a mighty grunt continuing in an awkward pattern of saunter. I looked to my right only to see the boring pattern of wallpaper that settled on the wall, at the moment I could dream of being that wallpaper. Just sitting there bright as day knowing all, knowing the true meaning of sense. I soon came to my awfully distorted sanity tumbling down the rest of the stairs as nothing could make me feel worse than I already felt. Picking myself up with aw inspiring effort I continued to walk with an awkward gait finally reaching the kitchen. Franticly I open the cupboard desperately looking for what I needed but to no avail. Nothing I dropped to the floor in a melancholy fashion until a vision of the lord himself appeared in the hands of a woman. A cup of water with 2 aspirin fizzing at the bottom. I almost cried with joy and drank, then everything became clear again and maybe now I could remember the night before.
