    The night was pure black save for the thin waxing moon offering a hint of light along the path. Snapping twigs and crunching leaves broke the painful silence as Ezra made her way forward through the maze of thick tree trunks. She paused and looked around. ‘Where was I going?’ Scoffing the question away, she continued. A chilly breeze blew across her face and seemed to run the length of her spine. She gathered her cloak closer, feeling the thick fur wrap snuggly around her neck.‘Where am I?’ A common question of late; her mind kept forgetting her whereabouts.

    By the time I stepped outside, the leaves were on fire. Albeit I should be wearing shoes and I probably should've raked them last night when the moon was up instead of the sun.  Oh well, now here I was under the Georgia morning sun raking up leaves that were left on the ground from our Autumn in the Summer party last night.The party was a last minute attempt to become more popular than my ex-bestfriend, Ashley.

    Flight

    How does it feel to fly? I would ask a bird if I could; how perfectly evolved for the sky. I bet it would feel so good. How must it feel and what must it think? As it soars higher and higher, does everything ewww.onedoor.cclse shrink? To be king of the clouds, I would die for the dream. I bet it is as glorious as it seems.My head hurts and my eyes felt heavy.I can’t see anything, nor can I feel; I’m trapped in a senseless void with nothing but my thoughts. Isolated with no chance of escape – where am I?My splitting headache slowly begins to subside and my eyelids lose their weight.I can smell the air; it l...uAwone door
