G.H.O.S.T.

TheGreyWalls

Have you ever wanted to scream at the top of your lungs, curse the heavens that birthed you?

knowingly that you deserve better, but will you get better?

Holding on because this is the best you can get?

This is where I am, or where I was, I grew a hatred for the world around me wanting to destroy it and work all of you in it, but anything out of malice always backfires. No matter the many times I wanted to flatline but I couldn't. The amount of time I've daydreamed myself rusting away in an empty world granted me so much serotonin, it kept me going for so long.

I see I'm getting off track, in the contract I signed for the company, I have to live there. At the time it seemed like a great deal, but these dark Grey walls made me regret doing it. Hathor had me escorted to my room, no different than from any condo or so. I sit here and I stare at the wall until it is time for me to to get started at work.

The days continue to run from me.

I lost track of time, the light in the lab started to shut off one section by one. There are no windows, just gray walls.The days have melted away, "Hey Mr.Diodes. Time for you to reset, after you submit your work." I hear from an encroaching security guard coming towards me.I don't bother to correct him, I shoot him a soft grin. When they leave my desk walking past me, i look at my creation an electronic version of a human brain, the only computer to think for itself, I just need to take ir to Hathior sp she can run the program soon, it will help a person's spirit be held by a ghost unit.

I somehow push forward through the security wall while publishing my work, it said ive had been here for months now, this must be a typo I softly say to myself. This is my first day staring at these grey walls, these damaged grey walls.

i make my way to the cafeteria, but my pass does not work, a nice lady lets me in, I get to the lunch line and when I swipe my pass it declines, again and again. The fiery redhead in a hairnet coming from their forehead takes my pass. They tell me that i am needed at the charging dock. I reached out trying to get my badge back, in s annoyed voice i reminded her that I was not working They let me leave with my dinner, however, I was no longer in the mood, I went to the balcony that was located on the other side of the cafeteria it had silver bars in a circular shape reminding me of dinner from the 70s with the name rockets. I stare off into the sunset and picture my life with Hathor, the kids we will have, and her in my arms. Can i secretly covet the wife of my employer, no one has ever kissed me in a manner that was, the electricity that went from me to her, The next chance I get to see her I will kiss her again, no I can't.

I make my way to the charging docks, at the end, it is my condo. These grey walls are such a bland color of grey. I open my door Hathor is waiting for me, she congratulates me, and then kisses me again I am once electrified again, I see months of research flooding through my head and it goes black.

I have just been awakened for my first day at the company I follow the map down to the lab, I start on my experiments sending electricity to a pig's brain hooked up to a prototype ghost unit. I finally get a brain wave similar to the pig's brain coming from the artificial brain next to it. I cheer and I am excited that it worked. A security guard walks pass, congratulating me on being unbroken for so long. I scoff at him," I am not a ghost unit." The look in his eyes turn to pity as he softly whispers My dear boy no one has told you.." Anger builds in me, I knock everything of my counter and yell at him to get out and leave me,I place my arm over the Bundson burner and it melts, it melted. I screamed as loud as I could. Even the red flashing lights were absorbed by these grey walls these damed grey walls. The same walls that haunt me, I run over and hit the walls as hard as I can my wrist breaks completely off, There was no blood nor bone, just the walls rhat mooked me, the grey walls.
