Via Rae,
the voice that we
love that we
am.
Every night
I can hear it.
The breathing.
In
and out.
In
and out.
Slow and monotonous.
I lie awake for hours listening to the noise until, at long last, I become so fatigued that sleep
finally overcomes me.
Only then can I enjoy a brief reprieve and silence.
Sweet, blissful silence.
Then in the morning I awake and go about my equally blissful, albeit mundane, day, until nightfalls, that is, and it's time for bed.
And then it begins again.
In the breathing.
In and out.
In and out.
Slow and moving.
and monotonous.
And it's not mine.
I remember the first night that it happened.
I was lying there, eyes closed and at ease,
and just about to slip away into a pleasant slumber when it began.
In and out.
In and out.
Slow and monotonous.
A slight rasp to it.
I had bolted upright in bed and frantically switched on the bedside lamp.
I was fully expecting to see someone or something in the room.
There was nothing there.
I sat listening for a while, my heart still racing from the fright.
Eventually I turned off the lamp and laid back down.
However, moments later,
it started up again, in and out, in and out, slow and monotonous, again I bolted upright,
and I quickly flicked on the light. Nothing. Silence, once more. I clambered out of bed and
searched the whole room from top to bottom, desperately looking for some source where the
intermittent sound might have come from. Unfortunately, my frenzied search proved fruitless.
Some watch shakenly and reluctantly, I climbed back into bed and switched off the light.
Not two minutes later, the breathing returned.
In and out. In and out. Slow and monotonous. Rasp.
This time, though, I forced myself to stay calm.
I lay there in the dark, straining my ears to pinpoint the sound.
It was definitely in the room.
and it was very close.
A little too close.
In fact, it was almost as if...
And then, with alarming clarity, it hit me.
Right in the pit of my stomach.
With rising terror, I realized it was coming from beneath the bed covers.
It was coming from inside of me.
beneath my own hyperventilating gasps, I could hear it loud and clear.
In and out, in and out, slow and monotonous and slightly raspy.
This time I bolted from the bed.
I stumbled through the darkness and bumbled into the bathroom, smacking on the light as I entered.
Gripping the cold ceramic basin with both hands,
I forced myself to look at my pale, scared face in the mirror.
My reflection seemed fine.
Well, aside from the paleness and the scared facial expression,
also I could no longer hear the breathing,
just the psychotic thudding of my heart as it pounded away in my chest.
I sat myself down on the edge of the bathtub and proceeded to take a few slow and monotonous breaths of my own.
Once I'd calmed down, I began to reason with myself.
I had clearly imagined it.
I'd been working too hard lately, not getting proper sleep.
The mind plays tricks when it's tired, overtired.
That's all it was.
So, I took a sleeping pill before I went back to the bed that night,
and every night for a week after that.
All in the hopes of sick.
setting my mind and my sleep pattern back on the straight and narrow.
Ah, how wrong I was, though.
How wrong I was.
In the subsequent weeks, the breathing returned.
Every time I lay down to go to sleep, I would hear it.
In and out.
In and out.
Slow and monotonous, every single.
time.
I started taking
sleeping pills every night.
For a while, they helped,
until they stopped working.
And the breathing returned again.
A visit to the doctor's surgery
proved completely and utterly
pointless. You could not find
a single thing wrong with me.
I was totally
fine with a capital F.
Everything was
perfectly normal.
I had no need to worry.
He reckoned the issue was purely psychological and recommended a psychiatrist.
Quite frankly, he thinks I'm crazy, but I know that I'm not.
Sometimes I can feel it, this thing that has taken up residence under my flesh.
It moves.
Well, more accurately, it slithers.
It slithers around inside of me.
It makes my skin prickle and crawl in both fear and disgust.
Maybe if I had just remained hearing the thing, then maybe I would have agreed with the doctor,
but feeling it move around, no, no, no, no, I know that I am not.
Crazy.
This thing that I can hear breathing can feel moving around underneath my skin at night is real.
I know it is
But my efforts to convince him were futile
And there was no way in hell
He would even consider performing surgery
I was destined to live the rest of my life
Sharing my body with this thing
This
Parasitic entity that has now began
To feed on me
But the doctor failed to notice just how emaciated I had become
He acknowledged how sleep-deprived I looked.
He prescribed me some useless sleeping pills.
He thinks I'm crazy.
Though, perhaps, I am slowly being driven crazy now, as each night passes.
Having no other options available to me, I must lie awake each and every night listening to the unnerving breathing.
And then feeling the occasional slithering movement.
In and out, in and out, slow and monotonous.
Slither, slither, and I can do nothing.
I can only wait for my brain to crash from exhaustion,
allowing me to escape into the peaceful silence of sleep.
Scratch, scratch, scrape, my eyelids fly open in both excruciating pain and wild panic.
My ears are yet again.
met with the dreaded breathing, and now I can feel it clawing at me from the inside.
In and out, in and out, slow, and monotonous slither, scratch, scrape.
My insides are on fire.
I can't take this anymore.
The doctor would do nothing to help me, so I must do it my
Despite being in complete agony, I managed to drag myself out of bed.
I crawl on all fours to the kitchen.
I force myself uprights to flick the light switch and stumble my way towards the knife block.
With a determined effort, I grab a handle and I pull.
The blade slides easily out of the block, glinting in the electric light.
Holding the knife, I slump back down to the floor on my knees.
Now the breathing intensifies in and out, in and out.
Raspier now, quicker, louder.
My head feels like it's about to implode with the sound.
This has gone on for far too long.
I take a deep breath and I plunge the knife deep into my abdomen.
Sharp, searing pain overwhelms me.
spurts and oozes out of the self-inflicted wound, but I can't stop. Not now. I can still hear it
breathing. So I pull the knife out and I plunge it in again and again and again. The blood is
thick, sticky, and hot and smells too much of iron and copper. It's nauseating. But I
I still can't stop.
Not until this thing has been removed from inside of me.
The blood continues to ooze out around me.
There's a pool of it now.
I've grown numb to the stabbing slicing blade.
I could finally reach the thing and start to remove it.
Peace by bloody peace.
A deformed sort of limb.
What must be a head?
Part of a torso?
All the while I grow lightheaded and my vision begins to blur.
As the last remnants of the creature are gouged out of me, I keel over onto my side.
The bloodied knife slipping out of my equally bloodied hand in the process, it clatters to the floor.
as my vision begins to fade
and the world dissolves into blackness
the breathing slowly
but surely
disappears
so this was it breathes beneath my skin
