Hideaway

She had not seen light for a long time. Did it matter. No. How could it. The room was dark and huge. The darkness stretched to every inch. She tried to stand up but decided against it. The room was still dark. A disturbance in the room as she touched her face. The numbness and coldness on her fingertips suddenly felt warm. It was as if she could touch the blood running through her veins. It made her realize that she was still alive. Still breathing. And the pain inside her dawned the reality of her mortality. A state that she will finally get out of.
