Writers perspective 1
I written what came to mind while walking in the park
today. Funny how the mind takes small details then weaves them into a
story. This is just the start and honestly i don't know if it is worth
finishing.
Have a read and let me know what you think :)
Walking
in the park, during a crisp winters day. The smell of rain still
present in the air, the sound of tree branches rustling. The presence of
only a few people, some with dogs makes it feel isolating. Then again
who would want to come out on a day like this. The skin bubbling up from
the cold winters touch.
Why do i come here? For some divine inspiration? To clear a cognitive block?
The inability to put words down onto a page, its like a paralysis that
overcomes you. Some days words just come to you and it is all smooth
sailing. I keep walking, the crunching of leaves underfoot. I don't know
how long i have been walking, minutes or hours? The sun was going down,
the few people and their furry companions vanished. Leaving me isolated
in this park. I look up and notice a tower. The rough and uneven
rendering covered in vines and dead branches. It looks forgotten. It
resembles the shape of a chess piece. What was that piece again? That is
right the castle. There is one door on the base of the tower, made of
pure iron. I place my hand upon the door, a shiver shoots through my
body. I expected it to be cold, but this cold? My head snaps behind me
when i hear rustling in the bushes, my heart racing like i just finished
a 100m sprint. "Who is there?" I shout, my voice shaky and unsure. No
answer. I have that weird feeling that i am being watched. There is
another noise, however this time radiating from the tower. I can hear
it, like a dull voice. I swear it is asking for help. There it is again
"Help me!" the faint voice just loud enough to be heard from within the
tower. I latch both my hands on the door, i drive my feet into the
ground. I start yanking as hard as i can. "HOLD ON!" I scream, any
uncertainty in my voice gone. "Please....." Voice dies off now. Have
they fainted, did their new found strength appear only because they
heard someone by the tower.
"Stay with me i am coming." I have
to keep the person in their awake or at least semi conscious until i can
break into the tower. The wind has picked up, the branches are moving
violently now , leaves are flying all around me. Rain has started to
fall, i can feel the droplets on my skin. Great now rain. I try to yank
the door again this time with all my might. "I will go get...........".
What happened, why does my head hurt. I open my eyes to be presented
with a dark and dank room. It smells like overgrown algae in an
aquarium. I cannot make out anything at all. I go to stand up when i
notice my ankles are chained. "What the hell, hello?" My voice weakened
"Who the hell are you?" What did i expect at this point, whoever hit me
is clearly not here. But wait, what is that noise. Yes i can hear it,
the faint breathing. Breathing of someone or something? "HELLO!" I shout
again. "Hello. Are you real?" A faint voice picks up from within the
dark. No way is this the person i heard from the outside, am i in the
tower? "Hello, yes i am, my name is Danica." I reply. "Who are you?" i
ask hoping to keep the person conscious, i need answers if we have any
hope of getting out of here. "My name is Eva." Eva said "I don't know
how long i have been here." From the sound in Eva's voice, she sounds
weak and drained of life and possibly hope. "Ok, Eva well we will get
out of here stay with me." I say in hopes to revitalize her will to
live. "You stay awake now you hear." Please stay awake i think. I
honestly don't think i could handle the silence. Apart from the drops
that are falling and crashing on the ground of the tower. Odd how i
didn't notice from the outside, but there is a window on the side. It
doesn't have glass, looks like the window from Rapunzel's tower from the
childrens story. I think, how ironic. Eva and I are sort of in that
tale now. We are stuck in a tower by someone wicked! A wickedness that
doesn't even have a face! "Why were you here, Danica?" Eva asks. "Don't
get me wrong i am happy you were." Weird question i think. "Honestly i
lost track of time and wandered here." I reply."Then i heard your voice
and investigated." Who is this Eva? How can i actually be sure she isn't
the one who locked me in here and it was all a set up.
