Look without fear.
Catch him and do not let him escape, look him straight while you tie him to that chair with the strongest rope you have, remember not to lower your gaze, keep it firm while you tighten the rope until you see him bleed. Look at his retina, through it they pass all those misfortunes that went through your life, you see them one by one marching in the same way as if you saw them on the big screen of an old cinema where the only spectator is you.
You bring your face closer to yours and your teeth tighten producing an annoying squeak to the point of pain in your jaw, you clench your teeth when you see that you could not change your destiny and for a moment you lose heart while your prisoner lets out a faint smile of Cynicism and contempt at the same time.
You close your fist and hit it hard again and again, inside you anger grows and you feel like every blow does not make a dent and only makes your smile turn into stereo, with nothing that can stop it.
You stop suddenly and breathe deeply ...
You have not got there to catch him, stop him, capture him and leave him prisoner as if to surrender. For moments you remember the times you went to the opposite, you were held day after day, often shaking in that corner or looking out the window, at other times you could not even get out of bed, breathing was complicated because you gagged your mouth and covered your nose leaving your senses breathless.
You stay watching your prisoner, there tied does not seem so terrible, it's just a piece of nothing that gives nothing but pity, apparently for a moment you lose the notion of time, you begin to forget and as you do your rope begins to loosen, you look head down and let your body fall on the ground in front of your almost freed prisoner.
You start to remember happy moments, instants where the smile and the good experiences surrounded you, triumphs and hugs, kisses and dreams, for a few seconds you forget completely just what made you catch the murderer that you are now tied in front of you ...
A wind blow awakens your senses, and you return to reality, you think about the times you were afraid to look under the bed, or inside the closet, you remember how you killed that project that you were about to achieve, that love that you let it escape and never you knew more about him, that kiss you denied, that job that presumed to be the one of your dreams and that car that waited for you, as well as those more than a hundred trains that you never took.
You have caught your fear, it is the moment that you tighten the rope and do not let it escape, but always looking straight ahead, without looking down.
Do not wait for another life, do not wait for fear to leave you because it will not, do not believe that better times will come because the moment is now and there are no more instants than you decide to create, live and dream. Catch your fears and leave them imprisoned forever, because who does not tell you that today is your day? LIVES❤
