The Stupid Fear.

Oh God. Oh God oh God oh God. My breath escapes me and I claw after it and frantically pull it in. But the same moment I catch it I drop it. I can see nothing. Darkness. Pitch black. My hyperventilation escalates. I don't what's in front of my face. I start to shuffle a foot forward and then stop. There could be anything on the ground in front of me and I don't know because it is so bloody dark. Even the stars are covered by clouds. I go back into my house and get a torch. I come back outside. And I make my way to the front yard and collect my letters from the postbox.
