I woke up in this cold dark room.

There are cobwebs everywhere,

And every way you look,

All you can see is inky blackness for miles.

I hear people faintly calling my name,

And telling me to wake up.

She cant be gone!

They say.

What do they mean?

I'm right here!

I try to say.

But i can't.

My voice is gone.

Is this what death is like?

I wonder.

Asleep one minute,

Gone from the world the next?

Will i ever see my friends again?

Tell another joke?

Make another cake?

Never again taste the sweet richness of dark chocolate?

How will i ever live without laughing

With my friends at stupid things?

I walk around with no specific destination

Hoping to find a door out of this horrid place.

Then there's an earthquake.

A sudden shaking, jolting my whole

Body as if i were riding a stampeding

elephant .

Then suddenly a sliver of light and a

Buzzing.

I squeeze my eyes closed and rub them,

opening them to find i'm back in my

Room.

My room!

And my family!

All standing over me.

I cry with joy and hug them all one by one.

Your ok!

They cried.

You passed out!

They said.

We thought you'd died!

We all embraced and i realized,

I hadn't quite died, and wasn't quite ready to just yet.

“Ha ha! Loser girl got a new hair cut!”

I sat in the nook of my favourite tree. It was recess. I tryed to b,ock out their tuants. I tried! I felt like yelling and screaming. I has always knowen I was different. The bullies nevr told me otherwise. My parents had died when I was 5. They had this neclace they left me in their will. They said it would keep me safe as long as I was wearing it, but they nevrer said what it would keep me safe from.

“Loser girls alone again! She has no friends! Loser! Loser! Loser!”

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!” I scream.

“I have had enough!” I shout.

“You guys, all of you have been tormenting me all year! I have had enough!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

I tear the locket my parents left me from my throat and the moment I do my toes start to tingle, then my legs, my tummie, my arms, and all the way up to my neck and head.

I have finally let my demons out.
