WRITING OBSTACLE

Submitted by Frankie Famighetti

Create a conversation that takes place within a human body.

It can be between cells, organs, or anything real or imagined within the body.

Mind and Body

_Thump._

_Thump._

_Thump._


Can you stop that please?


_What, stop beating? If I stop beating, you will die._


Your sound is grating to my ears. The thump thump thump is like nails on a chalkboard on top of thirteen elephants stomp stomp stomping. Stop stomping, I can't take it anymore!__

__

_You think too much. Quiet yourself, and peace will follow._


I can't. You are hurting me by keeping me alive. You are a curse upon me, a scourge sent by some power to punish me.

__

_I am not here to punish you. You punish yourself with these thoughts of yours. Life is a gift, and without me you have none._

__

__

But life is painful, horrible, suffering! Life is lying awake every morning scared to wake up! Life is fighting but surrendering halfway through the battle! Life has given up on me, and I on it.


_What advice can I offer a broken mind? My words do not seem to reach you. I long to teach you, but you fail to listen at every corner. I must seek help elsewhere, for I cannot fix you alone._

__

__

I cry out in the darkness, please, somebody, save me!


**My life has been given to you. Let go of your mistakes, leave behind your sin and shame, FOLLOW ME!**
