A point of no return

Title : I don't know what I am. Not a person. Not a picture, although a lot of people look at me. Perhaps I am a window, or a decoration, or even a mirror. People come in and out of the room where I lay. I can't move so I don't see them very well but sometimes, someone comes up close in front of me and then I can see them properly.There's a woman with a fat little face and short black hair who's always staring at me. For a while I thought she was looking at me, but actually she is looking at herself. That's why I wonder if maybe I am a mirror. Once, after she'd been looking very closely to me, she turned round and said to someone else, " I look and look at her, but all I ever see is my own face." She's always holding things up in front of me- a teddy bear, a CD cover,clothes,photographs of people. She gets very talkative sitting next to me, although there's no one here to talk to. There's someone she's looking for, called Michele. She calls for Michele over and over again. I'd like to tell her that Michele isn't here. There's no one here. But I can't speak. Hospitals have always made me anxious. All those ill people!! Surely if you go into a hospital you'll fall ill and die yourself. ha ha. I remember as a child going with my mother to a hospital- we were visiting someone, I can't remember who- and we walked past a sign saying infectious diseases. I asked Mum what infectious meant and she told me - "It means an illness other people catch easily," she said, and I thought, Oh! If you went down there you'd be risking your life. This hospital is different. It's not me that I'm scared for this time. Now I know that the worse things don't happen to you- they happen to your children. Ant said to me , " When the children bury the parents, that's natural. But when the parents bury the children, that's tragedy." Michele is already buried, deep inside herself where no one can dig her up. -to be continued- XD |
