Squirrel

By goingnowhere

I see it

Over there

Wait it moved

The squirrel

I can’t find it now

Where did it go

 

Oh,

There it is

It’s closer

Wait is it talking

It is

Come closer squirrel

So I can hear you

I wont hurt you

 

It’s gone again

 

Oh,

It did come closer

Still can’t hear you

Whispers of something

I don’t know

Come closer still

It inches closer

It’s within my reach now

So close I can almost feel it

 

Die

Die

Die

Die I say

It jumps at me

Scratching my face and hands

Bleeding

I’m bleeding now

Help I squeak

People just stare

 

Reality hits hard

There is no squirrel

There never was

I’m still in the white room

You know the padded one

The one they send the crazies to

Yeah that one

 

Wait I’m bleeding

How is that

The squirrel returns

I said die you

Pesky human

No one needs you

Slowly

Almost there

So close I can see it

Silence is so loud

I’m there

It’s over I think

The whiteness fades
