Inside My Head

Everything is fuzzy and distant. Something feels off... like I've just lost something. What did I lose?

The dark and blurry shapes that were moving so fast, stopped, and now all I can see is a sort of fuzzy grey. There's also a slight pressure on my back. Is something on my back, or is my back on something? I think my back is on something, so I must be laying down.

This place is strange. How does anything get done when everything is so blurry and far away? What kind of things are supposed to be done in the first place? Do I do things? I can't seem to remember... There must be something I do. It seems like I do an awful lot of laying down and watching blurs.

It feels like there is something I'm supposed to do, but everything is so distant. I can't seem to do much other than think. THINK! Maybe that's what I'm supposed to do. No, that can't be it... but that's all I can do.

This is tough, maybe I should take a break and think about something else...

There isn't really anything else to think about, is there? I could ponder why I'm here, but that sounds boring.

I am still on my back, in the grey...

...wasn't there something else I can do? I feel like I have some significance, but why? What would make me significant? Is it the grey? Is it the thing I'm lying on? What about the fast blurs? Are they my friends?

Friends? The word just appeared out of nowhere. What does it mean? Is it a feeling? No... Is it something I'm made of? No... Is it a thing? That seemed close... Thing...thing...not a thing exactly...it's a... it's a... something like me! Aha! Something that thinks! But how do I know if something thinks? It's got to be better than a thing to think. What is it called? A... A person! I must be a person, and there must be other people, and other people are friends! I wonder why there are two words for it. Did I make them up? If I did, then I think I like "friend" better. Am I alone? If I am always meant to be alone, why do I want friends? There must be others out there. But where? All I can see is grey.

...grey...

...what was I thinking about? Friends?

...I feel so sluggish... there is a sort of empty pain in the place above my back...I feel like there is some way to fill it, but I can't re...mem...ber...

...I want to stop thinking now...

Wait...something is moving. It's all black and it's coming toward me. Is it a friend? I hope so, I really want to meet one.

Oh, hey! The pressure on my back is gone. There's pressure on different places now. Some scraggly black thing appeared in front of me and somehow, I can sense that this is a friend. I like this friend. Maybe my friend will let me sleep...

Oh, I feel better now. The empty pain is gone, but everything is really dark. Not black, like my friend, but it felt like something was stopping me from seeing. I think I can make it go away if I try hard enough. I want to see, I like seeing. Maybe when I can see again, I should tell my friend how much I like seeing.

I think really hard about moving the things that make me not see, and then they move! Everything is so white and bright, it kind of hurts. I don't like it. Where is my friend?

I start to feel sad, and something new happens. I feel something, something warm and... WET! That's the word. And, it's coming from where I see things. I should tell my friend about those things. I really miss my friend... I feel the wetness come back, it kind of hurts now. I wonder if the wetness comes when I'm sad.

Suddenly lots of colors move around fast. I don't like this. It reminds me of before the grey. I don't like to think about before the grey. I don't want this. I want my friend.

After something else touches me, I decide to move the things that make me stop seeing.
