Weekly Contest #89
I felt my nails dig into the wooden table, pain surging through my body. I lifted my eyes from my feet to the vase that was placed on the table. The single rose that was ever so delicately placed in the vase was wilting, the once luscious red petals a now musty color of burgundy. The final petal fell to the ground and disintegrated on the wood. I felt a single tear run down my cheek and drop, splattering itself from impact.

You are lying there on your bed sprawled out like a starfish. The cold air surrounding you, sending chills down your spine and goosebumps up your arms. The once bright yellow walls darken from the night sky. Your lights turn off like a flicker of fire from a lighter. You hear loud booms of thunder and the rain starting to fall.
