I'm in a very dark hallway, I can't see a thing. I grope the wall and wander along, lost. I'm clutching my chest, i have a burning feeling in my heart, an aching, i'm in a lot of pain. I touch my chest and notice a hole where my heart should be! 'My heart is gone!?' I continue, stumbling on down the hallway. I notice a small light, a thin beam of white light coming from a door ahead. I rush to the door and try turn the knob, it won't budge. The beam of light was coming through the key hole. I drop to my knees and peer through the hole. My eyes adjust. I see a lush green forest, birds singing, flowers of every colour covering the ground. It was so overwhelming, so beautiful, I needed to get through the door! I then notice a woman, a beautiful woman, so beautiful my breath leaves me. She was sitting on a fallen tree. Her hair black and shimmering, her skin like snow, her dress pure white silk, slowly moving in the breeze. Her red lips turned up in a smile, she's happy, she's glowing - and in her hands was my heart. Blood soaked, still pumping! She had a few smears of blood on her front, blood dripping down her hands. 'My heart! She has my heart!' I jumped up to try the door, it won't budge! I feel weak. Now desperate i bang on the door with both fists but make no noise, they've turned as soft as jelly. My legs give way and i fall to my knees. I pull myself up to look again through the key hole. The forest has now died and turned brown, leaves cover the ground. The girl, before glowing and happy now sits looking sad and tired. Her white, silk dress is dirty and soaked with blood. She stands, places the heart on the tree where she sat and walks away, into the forest. I try to shout but nothing comes out. 'She's gone.'
