Running, sprinting down the road less taken.
Like a caged bird, turning back often to see the followers, all the while knowing I am free.
Free from the troubles of the past.
With every step, another trouble is freed from my soul.
Step, murder, step, robbery, step, assault, step, thinking.
Step.
I stop.
Thinking.
Thinking was a crime to them, to the puzzle pieces of my past.
It all fits together.
Fits together to form a web of deceit.
All in one, one in all.
I begin again, slowly building my pace to a heart pounding high.
But my mind wont let up, it wont let me breathe!
It wont let go!

That’s the last I remember from that day.
Next I knew, I was in a swarm of blue, green and white.
Beeping, humming, inklings of pain creeping like worms through my legs.
I know where I am.
I sigh,
and close my eyes.
When I awake, the pain will be gone.
When I awake the pain will be gone…
