tessa.

i can remember their voices as they leaned over my bed each night, my mother's kind eyes, my father's furrowed brow. they would tell me stories of the beauty of the world around me despite the garish research facilities surrounding me. how just outside the fence, a world of beauty desperately distinct from the gray everywhere, yearning to be the spark of life in this world.

then came the fire.

sometimes, i still paint the flames embroiling my childhood home from the comfort of my aunt's attic room. sometime's i can hear my parents voices ringing in my ears as they became ever increasingly trapped under crackling burning wreckage.

i couldn't save them

their voices and come back to me in flashes sometimes, in my sleepless nightmares, in the kindling that crackles in my aunt's small fireplace, in each stroke of my paintbrush.

my aunt's found some way to pay for me to begin attending college classes. it feels oddly, normal compared to what is normally going on in my mind.

during the day i sit through my chemistry, during the night i mix paints and paint away the pain. i get lost in it, my parents voices more soothing than distraught, the flames tickling the back of my mind rather than the forefront.

my painting is my way to escape my mind's entrapments. to flee the images of suffering every night.

now my walls are lined with the images i create; they are lined with the dulled voices of my parents.
