a door scraped open .
the brightness that cascaded in hurt my eyes.
someone was standing there.
i wondered if it was an angel.
the light framed it so.
my saviour.
whoever it was pushed the door close behind them.
swearing at the inanimate object for the difficulty they had doing so. Finally kicking it in anger.
i realised then.
that this was not my saviour .
it was my foe.
they moved towards me.
i could smell perfume.
it was 'obsession' by calvin klien.
i knew because it is what i wear.
i tried to speak
i think I made some kind of animal sound.
but no words would spill from my lips.
as the dark figure stepped forward i was
convinced i was going to be harmed.
but the license was snatched from the bed beside me.
she stared down at me for a moment.
then as she turned to leave she spoke.
"I nearly left that behind." she growled as if it were my fault.
"Don't worry luv. the poison should do its job real soon
i thought you would be dead by now, you must be a tough one"
the words rung in my ears.
poison? had she said poison?
why me? what had i ever done to deserve this?
i didn't understand.
with mush swearing the door was finally dragged close.
so here i lay. waiting for my inevitable death.
to weak to scream or move.
i'm constructing a letter to you in my mind.
one you will never receive.
i wish that i could hold you once more.to say goodbye, to tell you how much i love you.
i have told you that a million times , i know you will remember.
i can almost feel your arms around me, it comforts me.
if only i could die in your arms.
instead of here alone in
the room.

Damn fine! And a wonderful sense of mystery at the end.

All of your short stories make me tear. They're so beautiful and so vividly written!

That was gut wrenching.
