Desperate Times

Yesterday I discovered my way out. So at noon today, when the sun
rested highest in the sky, I stood up from my couch, my feet touching the
ground with leaden ease. And I walked towards the crypt doorway, not
entirely sure of how my feet were moving when wading through what felt like
thousands of churning tide pools, grabbing at my heels. The floor felt
sticky beneath my feet, like it didn't want me to move forward or let me
fall back. I could see through the haze the doorway and it struck me as
symbolic of everything I'd never have. It was only a door, but in that
moment, it felt like my life.
And my hand stayed rested by my side.
