UnfinishedA Story by Sherri Thomas
She
sat pondering, oceans of dry, dead grass surrounded her. Staring blankly at her
skin back notebook laying upon her cross legs. She realized wearing her faded
floral sun dress was a mistake as miserable black storm clouds set in, she remained
still in deep in thought, the rain didn’t bother her she thought it as
relaxing, as letting go, as if the clouds had let out all of their frustration.
She pushed back her ebony glasses that were slightly too large for her face,
she felt envious of the clouds she wished she could let out frustrations like
the clouds did but she just couldn’t, a part of her didn’t want to. Finally,
the clouds let go, she lay stretching out her pale legs to feel the petals of
water fall upon them placing her notebook under her to protect it from the
petals. She was deserted, all was silent except for the soft patter of each
droplet and her breathing each breath deeper than the last. The sweet smell of
fresh rain and freshly cut grass was becoming weaker each time she breath
through her nose. Her eyes welled she
was letting go, letting go of her frustration, of her emotions, her tears
trailed down her face she could taste them as they fell up upon her bluish, dry
lips.
