Thanks to
Lillie McFerrin, this week’s prompt is: Memories.
Memories
The dark
surrounds me. I tense as I hear the door open followed by footsteps closing in.
I feel the cold knife pressed against my skin but it’s not used to sever my
binds. I hear the sirens getting louder as they near, but they may not make it
to me in time. So, I’ll take my memories, the one thing he could not take from
me, and say goodbye.

DeleteI'll definitely have a go. I appreciate your encouragement!
An interesting take on the prompt. I don't think I've ever seen anything written like this - dark, with impending violence, yet somehow peaceful.
ReplyDeleteThank you, K.R.
DeleteI'm reading some darker stuff at the moment to contribute towards a play in development with three other writers. It's helping me explore other areas, so it may have surfaced from that.
