Oblivion Options

An older story I wrote a while ago.

Oblivion

She dug her toes deep into the cement… and the stars came crashing down on top of her…

She stared down at her torn panty hose and laughed at herself for being so clumsy. She always managed to make an absolute and total fool of herself. Her heels were next to her on the sidewalk, they were black… with straps. A cute little pale green bow was set on each little strap next to her toes, angled. The dress she wore matched her shoes. A strapless, black, cute dress that dropped to just above her knees… a pale green ribbon was tied around her waist, another bow, tied off to her left hip. The layers of different fabrics scratched against her thighs, which were scarred… bruised. She was happy this way… totally content, she thought. Her hair was in a messy, yet, sophisticated bun on the top of her head… and her curls were bundled up around it. She placed her head in her hands and closed her eyes…She imagined everything around her to be perfect… She wanted to be drowned in oblivion… She wanted to be… everything.



She looked to her right… the sidewalk seemed to drag on forever… the street was empty… it was behind where everything was at… it was an escape from the world to her; she walked. Her heels were dangling by their straps from her left hand, she was swinging them… her feet felt cold as they walked her along the pavement. It was dark, although, a streetlight flickered, on the other side of the road just ahead of her, as it struggled to stay lit… it was the only one left to illuminate her path… She was alone… but she heard voices from behind the tall trees and the round bushes next to her… She breathed in steadily...



She wasn’t blind… she could hear them… she could feel…she could sense… everything. She felt the wind push by her… brisk and cold… and she listened to the voices around her… the laughter… she was being mocked… She was in pain… She continued to walk. But gradually her steps became faster. The streetlight had finally given out and the street was now given light from the sky. The sky was settled at a midnight blue and the full moon was glowing above her head… shining on her… putting her in the spotlight. She knew she was divine…alluring. She could still hear them… but, they were whispering, now. They gossiped on as she walked, but she no longer cared… She was better than them… she was flawless…



As her pace became quicker… so did her thoughts. They were flooding her… She gasped for a breath. They choked her… she felt them… She could feel them all… She couldn’t handle it anymore… She had to give in, she knew… but she thought she was stronger than that… she thought she could never give up… and never let them break her down into a mess she was becoming… She couldn’t hold on anymore… and she had to let go… of her misery… of the melancholy that haunted her at night… in the dark… she was alone… The stars came crashing down on her… Her twilight was beginning to take over her… The thoughts tormented her with pain… and everything that she had felt… everything that she had trusted… choked her… and drowned her in oblivion.
