Sometimes I like to observe and listen. It's what I love most about myself, and right now, it's perfect. I can hear them bickering. I can listen to their conversation to figure out what's going on, and I don't have to say a word myself. I can just look and figure out my next move, my next plan of attack. Of course, it's not easy, and anything can happen, but maybe for the first time I can do something right. Something that benefits me. Something that gets me to where I need to go. It's hard to even think about anything else. Of course, I could join in with the bickering, but it doesn't seem ideal right now. Instead, I'll stay to myself taking it all in. Right now, that's the best decision, and maybe I can learn weaknesses. That will help me more than anything else.
I stand back and watch them attack one another, and I know that while I might seem safe for a moment, all of that can change in the blink of an eye. I mean, look at the kid I killed. One moment he's alive, and then he may have blinked, and now he's dead. And at least he's free. I hope it was painless as it was definitely quick. May he rest in peace. Maybe a part of me is envious of him because he has the freedom. He doesn't have to worry about this anymore, and while I don't ever want this to happen to myself, I'm still just wondering how different things would be if he was still alive. Maybe things would make sense. Maybe he'd attack me and kill me. Everyone here wants to kill me at the end of the day, and I want to kill them. No, I don't want to kill anyone, but I want to live, so that makes me have to kill more people.
I look at the bloody weapon in my hand, and I make a mental note to clean it up as soon as I can, but right now I can't even focus on this. I have more pressing matters at hand. Everything seems to crumble down around me, and I try my best to stay out of reach of everyone else. All I can do is remain strong, keep myself focused on the task at hand. My sister needs me, and I want to return to her, to make sure she sees me again, and knowing it might not happen destroys me. I saved her, and even though this was strictly for selfish reasons, I also did it because I care, and maybe that's my weakness. Maybe I shouldn't care. It would make all of this better. I take another step back, and I know I can continue to try to use dancing to my strengths, to make me look better than I really am. It's all in the feet. It works wonders, and maybe this will carry me forward. That's all I need right now.
