Darkness & Despair

I feel blind, engulfed by darkness and isolation. The only thing I can feel is the cracked concrete ground. My senses are slow, and my movements haphazard.

The only sense I can work is smell. Slowly, I siphon the petrichor from my surroundings, forcing my nose to tingle. And as I'm looming through the silence, I suddenly see two bright red eyes, illuminating my own drowsing ones in their reflection.

The salty water gently laps at the shore, silently beckoning the tiny grains to follow. As the sun melts down the horizon, birds swoop playfully above.

The Crow

In the graveyard otherwise known as a school, he stares at his prey. The children scream and run into the darkness and gloom of this dull May Day.

If you were there, but why would you be, the police need evidence... It was a cold grey morning and it was still dark outside but someone was up walking solemnly round the first floor of the house.

Only wrote this due to boredom. Took a few minutes, I will work on it in the future.

@ryskew For a quick effort, it's very good!! ^_^

I just realised a big mistake saying smell was the only working sense! Haha, I'm going to blame the fact I wrote it at 1am.

Nice use of petrichor, if I had a list of favourite words that would be up at the top!

Same! As well as Sololoquy - I LOVE that word.
