The story below was written based on this picture.
The family house Delirium was always the place where my
fears came to life. I’m not talking figuratively either.
As I
walk through, I feel cobwebs brush across my face; hear the crunch of dead bugs
beneath my feet. If only I could have just had the house torn down before
walking through it…stupid regulations.
The
house is exactly as I remember it…well minus the dead bugs. I step through the
last room…my old room. A rat scurries from under the bed as the floor creaks
under my weight.
I see
it before I brace myself for the future reality it will show. I look into the
mirror and see my blue and green eyes staring back at me, cracks forming across
my face. I brush my hand across my face
and feel that the mirror has now become reality.
As the
cracks form, I know I will never be leaving delirium.
As always, I would love to hear what you think about it. Suggestions? Questions? I'm all ears.
