My mind said run. A sound rung in my ears, I was shocked to find that the sound was me laughing. My hands came together in a cheerful clap and I began jumping up and down joyfully. Suddenly…even my thoughts switched to strange. I did it! Ha-ha! I did it! again! Again! Again! My mind ordered and I obeyed. I swung my arm back…Again!Again! I plunged the knife in his chest. Again! Again! I did it again and again as my laugh took on a sound of complete hysteria. Again! Again! I sat back, exhausted.Whoa, that was fun! Nap time…
They found me huddled in a corner. A bloodied thumb in my mouth. Knife in hand. Before a dead body-my step-father. But I couldn’t believe it. It couldn’t have been me! I woke up in a state of complete shock and disgust, throwing up right on the spot.No, not me. I didn’t do it…I swear.I swear! But it was me.
And here I sit in a jail for crazy people. Now I’m sane. I’m looking around at my cell mates. One’s rocking back and forth in a corner. One’s singing a lullaby.I don’t belong here… My jail therapist calls it multiple personalities. He doesn’t believe I’ll ever be free from the “Other Me”. So yea, now I’m sane. I understand that it was me who killed my step-father. Why? We don’t know. Now I’m sane…but at night the “Other me” takes over… “Lullaby and goodnight..” I hum as I rock in a dark corner of my cell. My step father use to sing this to me. “Lullaby and goodnight, go to sleep my sweet darling…” I grip at my hair and scream repeatedly. My screams turn into laughter. The attendants will come for me. I must sing for all to hear. “Lullaby and goodnight, go to sleep my step daddy… ”Hehe heheHahahahahalouder!sing louder! Again! Again! Again! Again! Again! Again……………… Copyright 2008 Sanel Allen |
