It’s disgusting
The way the screaming grates your ears.
The sight of a corpse burning
The flesh peeling, the smell…
“Blurgh”
I couldn’t stop vomiting
I am a murderer now,
I want to say I care,
That I feel guilty,
But I don’t, I don’t feel anything
I’m lost, I’ve been lost for a long time
The only thing I can feel is my want, to survive and for answers.

‘Grrrr’, a hideous beast growl menacingly at me
It looks like some sort of cross between a bear and lion with horns
It’s been two weeks since I entered this forest,
Its atmosphere filled with gloom
The trees tauntingly waving their branches at me,
As if to mock my stupidity for entering their forest.
The place where I was held captive was situated right on the outskirts of this forest,
The other side a cliff drop to hell.
Right now, I’m beginning to think I should’ve taken the cliff…
I don’t think I can go on any longer the creatures of the forest constantly stalk me,
Waiting till I sleep or lose focus, to jump at me,
I haven’t slept in days, I’ve been eating poisonous berries and mushrooms to survive
Worst of all the buzzing,
It won’t stop.
“Kill me already!” I yell
“You’ve been digging at my skin any moment you get, why don’t you just eat me and get it over with!”
“Come on get it over with” I say as my legs give out and I slump to the ground
My skin crawls as it approaches it face looks ready to devour me
But its eyes...
The buzzing stops.
“You’re trying to help me!?”
It growls at me more menacingly it lashes out at me again pulling flesh of my arm
Agh! I think it’s trying to pull me up
“I can’t go on any longer I’m poisoned already”
I.. I.., before I could finish, I start sputtering blood
Is this it?
My head getting lighter, my mind fuzzy
Last thing I saw were massive jaws about to maul me as my eyes shut.
