Like a bird shot in the wing, I kept falling towards the ground. Trying to fly with the other wing. I can do this, I can do everything, because I am strong. But that was just for show. I destroyed myself in so many ways. Just before hitting the ground I pulled up and fought back. Awaking from a world I created myself. There was no bird, I was still Laura and I had mutilated myself.
