Burning Maddness

The blood within this body begins to boil it flows but it does not flow fast enough. Every vein within me is screaming out, it burns, what is this burning sensation? What is causing this? Why wont it just stop? Every inch of me is screaming to make it stop but it wont and I know it wont. I look in the mirror and its not me starring back. I see my face but the eyes, how can the eyes look so different. The eyes are not mine, but whose are they. This maddness is seeping and creeping closer to me than I care to admit and soon it will engulf the only piece of me thats left. It will devour me and I will be no more, and maybe its for the best. This burning pain just wont stop. These eyes pierce me and I cant look away. Every inch of my being tells me to turn away and flee. To just run and to keep on running, but it is as if I am frozen here in place, frozen yet buring from the inside out. I stuck here, trapped in what used to be my body but has been taken over, I am nothing but a captive within my own body now. This maddness is taking over and soon I will be lost for good. This maddness ruins hopes and dreams, and it destroys lives. The blood within this body is no longer liquid yet it is not solid. It is somewhere in between. It flows but it does not flow fast enough. Every cell in my body is screaming for relief, a relief that will never come. My nails tear at my flesh as it trys to stop the burning but it will not stop. The pain and agony fill every inch of my thoughts and I can no longer focus on what is right in front of me. Everything blurs together and my head throbs. I loose my hearing and I fall to the floor, burning, I feel as though I am on fire in this world full of ice...

A wonderfully fantastic tale full of imagery. I was captivated by the story almost as though the eyes had also pierced into my psyche.

Beautifully written!
