Five Sentence Fiction ~ Fabric
Polyvore by Grace2244 |
Every fiber of her being was on fire from pain, betrayal, and remembering the unspeakable of her past. What she had known as the fabric of her life fell apart the way ash becomes dust the moment it is touched. Her world turned upside down and suddenly a paranoia washed over her. The threats to her life if she spoke of the secrets were as powerful now as when she had been a child. Although all had been hidden in the amnesia, the threats were the first to leak through along with the early memories keeping her from seeking help for far too long.
Intriguing and more than a little sad.
ReplyDeleteThis is powerful, and very sad. Well done.
ReplyDeleteThis is sad, but very captivating. Leaving me wanting to know more and what secrets she keeps.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Donetta.
DeleteAmnesia, threats and paranoia all rolled up in one neat tight package. Poor thing.

I agree with the previous comments: sad and intriguing, a little dark but very powerful. Makes me want to know more. Great work!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kate. Have been away a few days and unable to comment/reply through my blog and was with family so away from computer. Will try to catch up in next two days.
DeleteI agree it is captivating. It makes you want to know the secrets and if she can find a way of escape. More excellent work Maggie.
