The Attempt

This is a kind of mini-story i suppose. I hope you like it.

 

A knife

cold and smooth

pressed against my scar scattered arm.

I feel the blade break my skin

but feel no hint of hurt

as the pain inside me numbs my body.

I feel the pulse as i see the deep red liquid drain out of my body.

I bury it deep in my arm

hoping relief will come soon

and it does.

First

the dizziness.

The letters on the page of the upturned notebook swim

They blur together and form dark spots

almost resembling inkblots.

Second

the darkness.

The faces on the pictures on my wall disappear

the floor turns into a blackhole.

My eyes drown in the darkness.

I feel myself slipping

my memories slide away

my weary brain shuts down.

 

My eyes flutter open.

Im standing

in some strange hallway.

I glance down at my arm

the only thing there is pale skin

no trace of anything i had ever done

no remnants of my sins.

I pause

look up

and see two doors.

I cautiously walk

afraid of what is ahead.

I reach them.

The door on the right is a bright white

like a new pearl

but so white its almost translucent.

The silver nameplate in the middle hold one word

heaven.

I look to my left

and its not pretty compared to what i just saw.

Rotted almost blackened wood

like a dead tree.

I cannot read the name on this one

for its scratched and dirty

gray unlike the other gleaming silver one.

I reach for the right doors handle

i turn it

but it does not open.

I push

i pull

nothing.

Stupidly

i go to the left door and turn its handle.

It opens with ease.

I see darkness.

I feel my body being pulled into it.

I try to stop

but fail.

I clutch the door

i dont want to go

but the door gives in

and i fall into the shadows.

 

Voices.

People talking.

My eyes open

and i see a blinding light.

Faces appear.

I glance at my surroundings.

A heart monitor.

An IV.

Its a hospital.

I realized what the word must have been on the left door.

Hell.
