#venting #DisturbingImagery

I feel like a horse in his stall, alone but able to hear the other animals around him. His friends, his companions, and hearing the escalating terror in their voices but unable to get to them. To free them. The more and more terrified barking and screaming and howling as I kick uselessly at my stall door, too constrained to offer any real help to them as I can only neigh back and listen in terror.
I want it to stop. I want to break down the door and escape with them.
