A story of Loss
1st Feb 2020
"My mind's playing tricks on me", the woman standing on the bank thought as she closed her eyes. She smiled and opened them again...it was the same as before. Everything around her was reflected upside down in water.
2nd Feb 2020
She closed her eyes again, longer this time. Opened them and the world was still reflected upside down in water. A creeping feeling of disquiet was starting to nestle as she quickly began closing and opening her eyes; each time revealing no change. Panic started to rise.
3rd Feb 2020
”How can I be the right way up if the world is upside down?” thought the woman. “Mind, you are not in control, I am and what you’re showing me isn’t real. I will count to three and you will stop playing your tricks. 1...2...” and suddenly the world started to fall.
4th Feb 2020
The light was being eaten by shadows cast out by the imminent catastrophe. As the world continued bearing down on her, the woman felt anger, but it wasn't her own. It was stifling and she wanted to run, but she was pinned and there was nowhere to run to.
