Third Place: I Choose HopeIt's August, the sun is blazing outside; filling the world with brightness, heat and happiness. I gaze out at it from my dingy room; clothes strewn all over the floor, books scattered everywhere half-read – picked up and discarded in a fit of apathy that seems to last forever. The sun is mocking me, I'm sure, silently saying "here, look how much fun everyone is having in my rays while you hide inside, you pathetic excuse for a human being." In my heart it rains. Always raining, sometimes drizzle and sometimes storms complete with thunder and lightning, but rain nonetheless.
I pick up another book, read a few pages and then throw it on the pile with the rest, unable to concentrate for more than a few moments. The rain in my heart shows on my face, constant tracks down my cheeks. My thoughts flit to a picture – what if tears left scars? I wipe them away in disgust at myself. Another book caught up and discarded; I can't find interest in anything.
