Whispered Pain

By Ashley Fontainne

I am no longer among the living.

At least, I don’t think I am.

I don’t remember my name, my age, or even my sex. I don’t feel anything. I can’t smell. I hear, but sounds don’t register emotional responses anymore. I see, but everything is in muted gray. There are no vibrant colors. There is no sense of time or space. I am aware, but unaware.

I just…float.

Like a weightless cloud drifting through the universe. I don’t know where I am or how I came to be here. Ebony nothingness has swallowed me whole.

Can you help me?

Will you help me?

I need to know who I am, where I am, how I can escape this black void.

Help me.

Please help me.
