Rush

It was impossible to sleep last night. I was restless. I couldn’t stop tossing and turning. I couldn’t tell if I was dreaming but I kept seeing strange visions. They were so random.

Everything was so dark and my arms were restrained with ropes. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't break free. Every time I closed my eyes, I could see the haunting images.

I saw myself fighting, like people were trying to harm me, while I was restrained. I saw cloaked beings around me. One held a dagger in their hand. I was afraid and confused.

I couldn't tell if it was a sign or something else. I tried to stay awake but every time I drifted off to sleep, the images would return.

Maybe it was anxiety. I was about to undertake the most ambitious journey I have ever taken in my life. I had never even left my hometown alone. I guess my mind was playing tricks on me. I never knew what to make of the crazy games my mind played.
