I'm lying on the bed inside my dark room, trying to clear my mind.

​

I put my right hand on the left side of my chest to soothe my heart.

​

I’m not palpitating, but suddenly I’m having a hard time breathing.

​

My headache is getting worse as I’m whimpering in silence.

​

Tears starts rolling down nonstop on both sides of my eyes.

​

I feel so helpless as the memories of my dark past are now vivid.

​

A minute had passed…

​

I feel something sharp like a knife is piercing through me.

​

Every inch of my body is in pain, but I can’t even move.

​

​

I don’t know where it hurts or where it’s coming from.

​

Why is this happening to me?

​

What’s wrong?

​

It’s like I’m having a nightmare, but I know that I’m wide-awake.

​

Another two minutes have gone by…

​

As I stared blankly at the ceiling, the crystal water from my eyes had already stopped.

​

My pillow is wet and my cheeks now are dry.

​

How long has it been?

​

How long this should be going?

​

Should I wait a little longer?

​

I scanned my surroundings and realized that it’s really dark in here.

​

Then three minutes passed…

​

An abrupt deafening sound of my alarm went off.

​

I sat down and turned it off.

​

I picked up my eye glasses beside me and wear it while I stood up.

​

I walked to the door to switch the light on.
