_{She can't take it.}

She'd do anything to get lost, one last time. She feels like the world is folding itself in on her. Waiting for the edges to tear away, to show her what's really there.

Biting her lips to keep from crying out, taking pills to keep from feeling. Everything spinning, she's dizzy, but can't close her eyes.

All she can do is wait, for it to all fall away. Seems like a waste of time, with nothing to be done to stop the imminent disaster.

Tick, tock.
