WRITING OBSTACLE

Inspired by Samantha Roberts

Write a descriptive scene about a character feeling the sunlight on their face for the first time in a very long while.

Try to use as many senses as you can to capture this moment.

Too Much

I’ve spent so long in the cold

Dreaming of feeling the sun again

And as I finally step outside

The warmth hits my face

(It’s too warm, too much)


I’ve spent so long in the dark

Dreaming of seeing the sun again

And as I finally step outside

The light fills my eyes

(It’s too bright, too much)


I’ve spent so long on my own

Dreaming of seeing people again

And as I finally speak to them

I say I feel great

(That’s a lie, it’s all too much)


I’ve spent so long without help

But I’m fine, I don’t need it

(I do, I wish they could see it)

Maybe I should tell them

(It’s not like they’d care)

(I’m too much of a burden)
