A blogger short.

Her lids shut tight
the binding crusts over with dried blood and pus
she wiggles her eyes in attempt to break them out
stuck together, she is left blind and yet it was only a second ago that she remembers seeing the sun
glowing globe-like orb that blazed with streaks of yellow, red and orange
a combination of hope
feeling the pulse of it's power beating through her skin
all she wanted was to open her eyes wide shut
break the stitches
the silence
see again
for so long she has been watching visions from her cornea play against the integument
dark shadows coming from nowhere
lurking behind lies, she tried to scream
she drew up her hands to her eyes and dug into every bound silent sound
pulling apart the mutiny that was keeping her in the dark
blood dripped from her pupils rolling down her check to the slight smirk of her mouth
the copper taste reminded her of the bitter end that was ahead
and despite her disturbing bloody face
the stitches hung limp
finally she could see her light again.
