Rainy Day Prompt
Rain poured down hard as my alarm sounded. I clicked it off and opened the window, just
behind my head. I closed my eyes and
relished in the air. I pressed play on
my speakers and set my iPod to shuffle.
I curled into the sheets, felt the soft, cool air wash over my face and
listened to the echoes of the music. The
crack of thunder electrified my thoughts.
I thought of everything all at once, the past present and future. I thought about how once upon a time I was
little and how much I wanted to go back.
I thought about all the bad decisions I ever made and then the good ones. I thought about where all the choices got me
to and how if I slightly changed just one, how different it may have all turned
out. Then, carefully and slowly I
thought of forever. I inhaled the rainy
air and eased it out from my lungs. It
was too hard to fathom forever. I was
satisfied with the now: my eyes closed as the rain pitters against my
window. Before I knew it, I thought of
nothing and fell asleep.
