Creep (sentence Challenge)

by Bartimaeus

I sat there as a single, angry tear burned down my cheek. I was in my closet, just as i’d been many times before. I locked myself in and threw myself on the floor, my fists clenched tightly. I pounded the floor, the wall, and anything else worth pounding.
I only stopped pounding when I had an epiphany.

I don’t care… I honestly do not care…

I felt a wicked grin spread across my face. I began laughing a creepy, sick laugh as I started looking for a pair of scissors. I finally found them; they were under my bed, where I’d thrown them the last time I used them. I felt the wicked smile growing even larger across my face. Part of me was sickened, but the majority of me loved it. Loved it for hating myself.

I don’t care anymore…

I stabbed, stabbed as hard as I could. Somehow the pain didn’t satisfy me enough. I wanted more, much more. I was enraged, and began looking for a box of matches. When I found them, I lit my bed and jumped in, letting the heat envelope me.

    Oh, and I forgot to say, the title reminds me of the song by Radiohead. Which is awesome.

    This guy clearly does not know what the hell he’s doing here, so the title is immensely appropriate….is he getting gratification out of hurting himself or destroying stuff? This is an important distinction(for me at least), cuz busting up junk is a pretty good safety valve , messing yourself up indicates some real pathology, and I’m curious to know what is going on here.

    Leo, my friend, you have succeeded in making a serene person want to slam a hole in the wall. Well.. nearly serene. Almost like the story is alive. This is brilliantly done.
