Steering wheel, Twins, Splattered red paint in the man's blue house

I am a driver of my own vehicle.

And I am driving in an endless dark road which seems to stretch out into the nothingness.

I'm lost and the gas meter is barely full.

But, I continued.

I continued driving for miles and miles, alone with nothing but the silence.

Once or twice, I saw shadows on the streets and then I realized the night seems unending. It scares me and I'm losing hope.

I started thinking about my family, the people that I'd left behind if ever I didn't get out of this road.

I continued.

I drove.

Eventually the gas ran out and I'm in the middle of nowhere. Alone, hopeless, tired.

I left my vehicle in the middle of the road, grabbed my gun and pointed it on my head.

I pulled the trigger 1..2..3 then I heard the sound of the gunshot echo through the dark, No. I didn't shot myself, I fired at the sky, In just a few seconds the bullet would fall somewhere.

The gunshot was a temporary comfort in the deafening silence. It's still dark but my resolve is unwavering. I stood up from the place that I fell.

I walked.

It's tiring

I felt the soreness in my legs

My feet are starting to cramp

but, I continued

I was starving

I was lonely

I had no one

but, I continued

The shadows started accompanying me.

I was scared

The whispers in my head started

They are telling me to just end it.

I ignored them

and continued

Albeit, the fact that I may never escape.

I choose to die trying than to die hopeless.

I kept walking then eventually I saw the sun.

I'm saved.

"Hey nikolai! you know I had a lot of fun with my girlfriend today, seeing her smile can really brighten up my mood." Francis was staring at Nikolai, his twin brother. They were both sitting on the floor with their legs crossed, face to face. "Heh.. well isn't that nice? my little brother grew up to be a fine man. You know I think she's the one. Take care of her." Nikolai forced a smile tears building in the corner of his eyes. " Aww c'mon bro. Don't be sad I'm sure you'll find someone soon." Francis tapped Nikolai on the shoulder in which Nikolai just froze and stared at him. He took a deep breath and with a solemn voice he spoke "Francis, you have to move on. I can't be here forever and you know that." Francis was dumbfounded by what his brother just said, he shook his head until he realized he was looking at a mirror, speaking to himself.

The man hid his intentions with make up and smiles,

Decorating their coffins with stickers and cheers;

A child in play, inside a game, running in miles.

His moustache are broken strings that invites you in,

His toys are knives and ropes that soon will pierce your skin,

His wrinkled hands snuck inside the child's yellow dress,

A red stained body, left tamed in the mad man's nest.

Little child went dissaray in hysteria,

Hear them laugh underneath causing insomnia,

The outside view is a hollow calm house in blue,

The man flees town and they found a little girl's shoe.
