A short fiction I’ve written when I was 15…3 years ago.
Untitled - by me…
The streets were all empty. There was an eerie feeling all around the area. It felt so cold, so…lonely. Yes, lonely. I was alone, in this word…my world.
My head spun as I thought of my dreadful past. Endless quarrels, screams, sounds of glass shattering and cries. Cries to be set free. It finally ended, after my drunken father was captured and locked up in an asylum. I stared down at my scarred arms. My jacket covered all the cruel doings of the madman.
My mother, was now under the care of nurses and doctors. She was found lying on the bathroom floor, milky liquid streaming out of her mouth. "An overdose", was the doctor’s words, after she was brought behind the white, dead walls of the hospital.
There was no one for me to go to now. My soul was filled with fear. There was no safe feeling in any part of me. I manage to survive the cold winter air, without care, without love. Every frightful night, my mind unconciously brought back the past as I lay to sleep. I was restless…
One similar day to any other, a light so bright came down upon me…shining me with hope, strength and most of all, love. I stared straight into this wondrous energy of life. A man, is it God? He held His arms out. I felt like a young, innocent babe again. I walked into His warm, gentle arms and found myself never alone, never afraid again. The angel who rescued me, was my Father. He let me end my life, to begin a better one.
This was written before I actually found God. It was what I wish to feel and experience then. Thank God, He found me. As grim and overstated the story may be, there is, I confess, some truth in it (only SOME, mind you). However, let by gones be by gones. With God by our sides, we can see anything through…=^_^=
I’m actually open for comments ya know…+_+
