Nightmare, this is a short story
In the depths of my sleep i see a place of darkness, a maze i
can't escape. I smell the stench of rotting trash. I feel my heartbeat
against my chest as a door slams shut. I run, I try every door in front
of me but none will open. My chest aches as I struggle for air, i push
myself to run faster. I can hear footsteps behind me. I can only see the
shadows turn into blurs as i run as fast as i can. The panic threatens
to tear open my chest as my pursuer gets closer. The cold dirt makes my
escape difficult as my feet sink into the soil with each step. My muscles
ache but i push on as sweat drips from my exhausted body. My heartbeat
fills my ears, pounding in my head. The stench of rot getting worse,
choking me as I get to a dead end. The temperature drops and my breath
becomes mist. I can't escape. I frantically search the stone walls for
an escape, for anything. I can hear my pursuer right behind me, my heart
stops. Suddenly it's beating so fast i feel faint. I can feel myself
falling. The taste of bile filling my mouth as I'm nauseated with fear.
I try to turn to see my pursuer, but all i see is me, standing in front
of a mirror, glaring at myself.
