im not grave digging cos its my own thread. i know its been a while since ive been active due to being busy in real life
but ive recently thrown this idea onto the computer and thought i might as well post it otherwise it will just get dusty and forgotten.
this little section is coming from a different point of view but happening at the same time as the piece of writing in my first post
i hope you enjoy what little i could share
Your conscience is disturbed by the sounds of voice, yelling and screaming. As your mind comes out of the deep emptiness of rest, your bodily senses begin to tingle. But not the way it used to. Something feels wrong. You feel unusually cold yet you do not feel uncomfortable.
As your eyes flutter open, you begin to wriggle your body free of the stiff position it had been held in, lying down with hands crossed over your chest. Sitting up, you realise what it is that you were sleeping in.
A coffin.
You start to feel confused and lost. Sitting in the coffin facing cold, grey, walls, you take a look around the huge, stone cathedral surrounding you and come to a stop to stare at the large archway entrance. In the chaos of people were men and women, young and old, dressed in sad, black clothing all franticly trying to get over and through evenly spaced rows of wooden pews, to the large archway exit at the back of the building. Their faces read an expression of fear and confusion.
Your attention focuses on an unmoving girl standing under the middle of the archway, staring straight at you. Dark underlines trace her tear stained eyes as she stares into your eyes, looking somewhat sad, surprised and shocked.
Suddenly a sharp piercing pain strikes you on your chest. It feels like your heart is being impaled by a knife. Like a hot sword had pierced through the skin straight into the very centre and continued through. You grimace at the increasing pain but do all you can to continue to stare at this strange girl, all the while the sounds of the people drown your ears. As the crowd pass through the archway and swallow up the girl, you sense there is another presence around you.
You are beginning to feel heavy, weak. Your eyes feel tired. The searing pain is beginning to ebb away but it is soon replaced by a throbbing pain in your chest. Your arms that are holding you up suddenly become unbearable fragile and you collapse back into the coffin.
The last thing you see before darkness claims you once again are four faces leaning over the coffin.
btw, there might be some inconsistency between the two sections but i don't really care about it
