Running
It was so dark, I couldn’t see almost anything except the moonlight illuminating the thin trail as I ran and ran. I could hear the rustling of bushes, the sound of leaves on trees and snapping of twigs behind me as I ran full force ahead hoping I wouldn’t stumble and fall as I usually do. My heart was beating so hard I thought it might beat out of my chest or make me drop from a heart attack but I could not stop, I had to keep going, I couldn’t let whatever was chasing me catch up to me no matter what. I don’t know how long I’ve been running for but I wanted to give up even though I couldn’t, maybe I could try to hide but why did I have a feeling that no matter how good I tried to hide whoever or whatever was chasing me would easily find me.

Ughhh thankful to wake up from that never ending nightmare but not happy to have to wake up and get ready for class. Whenever I sleep it seems that I always have that same dream so although I get sleep I never really feel well rested and I wake up often from it so I can kiss getting a straight eight hours of sleep goodbye. I’ll never understand why I have that dream, I’ve looked up the dream meanings behind it but there’s so many things that fit but don’t make sense, maybe I’m just weird that way. I never fit in with anyone or anything so I guess it makes sense. Now to haul my behind out of bed to get ready for class in time and if I’m lucky my mom won’t be home so I can grab a slice or two of toast without listening to her start a screaming match with me especially since my head already hurts from my alarm. I can’t wait to move out and out of this town, only one more semester to go. Once I hop out of the shower I do some light make up and decide to let my wavy waist length black brown hair air dry after scrunching in my moroccanoil curl enhancing cream in and throw on some black joggers and a crop cami and thin black zip up. I decide to peek out the window and see my mom’s car is gone, looks like I’ll be getting my toast after all, woohoo! I check my phone and see that Xander has texted me he’ll be here in five, perfect timing haha. Xanders like an older to me and we look out for each other due to both having difficult family lives and of course mental health issues, we never really talk about them but know we each have them.
