Ice Block Monologue

Improved Essays
The shrill radar sound emitted from me wakes you just enough to click snooze. After clicking snooze five times, you take me off my charger to unlock me. I’m the first thing you look at every morning; my bright, colorful screen waking you up provides you with all the news and drama that occurred overnight. Throughout the day, I am constantly with you, you can’t live without me. I save you from awkward moments alone on the bus as I supply music and a distraction from the annoying middle school-ers. I allow you to see the latest twitter clash, send ugly snap chats to your friends, and share those filtered seflies with the world. You put me in a $100 case with a screen protector due to your clumsy manner. I am constantly dropped, thrown, and taken …show more content…
On June 28th, 2015, you decided to race Becky to the ice cream truck down the block. And you forgot about me, in your sweatshirt pocket that had no support for such my fragile self. Just yesterday you were at a lost when I couldn’t be found. But that was yesterday. Today the ice cream truck is slowly rolling down the block. As you giggled along with Becky, I felt a weight upon my battery. I knew today would be the day. You increased your speed, overtaking Becky the slightest bit. That acceleration is what caused my demise. It was like slow motion; I tumbled out of your sweatshirt pocket and clattered to the ground. I was face to face the asphalt that shattered me. Your giggling stopped as you ran back to me “Becky, hold up I dropped my phone!”. There was no fear, no worry in your voice, yet I knew the damage done. I feel myself picked up and through my jagged, jigsaw puzzled screen I see the fear and tears in your eyes. You realized the reality of my invincibility. The most important thing in your life is damaged, destroyed. “My mom’s going to kill me!” you say with tears running down your face. You wrongly assumed I am unbreakable and this has costed

    I trudged onward, feeling the numbing cold of the atmosphere intensify with each hurtling step. Every breath I take now is filled with the icy air of my heart. It pains me so much as the ridgid air spreads the cold blood throughout my veins. The cold in my heart blurs my vision, rimming everything in red. Seconds later, I heard a gunshot whiz past my ear, before more started to follow, thick like winter hail.…

    Gray Monologue

    When I think about the old world, only in distant memories and muted daydreams, I mostly think about color. The urban world was dashed in eye-catching colors and neon lights. Nature was slightly more subdued; somewhat monochromatic, yet varied in understated tones of grey, brown, and green. Color is hard to come by, now, with the exception of flame and blood. Rampant fires and firestorms consumed forests and cities long ago, and everyday continue to demolish what was once taken for granted.…

    I never imagined a day where my mom wouldn’t love me back. She taught me how to stay afloat, even when life was dragging me down. In this moment, I figured that I had reached my capacity for happiness; I thought that this was God telling me that I had my lifetime of joy in only seventeen years. It was then that I decided I deserved to live either in completely sorrow and agony, punishing myself for the pain I caused my mother, or not at all. The scars soon covered my legs and arms but were nothing compared to the gaping hole in my heart.…
