It has been weeks since I've gotten here and there has been little signs getting out this place anytime soon. Instead of getting out, it appears that I have been venturing deeper and deeper into the area whilst doing all I can to get out.
Here, the air has been hauntingly still, broken only by occasional downpours. Having been here for so long, I have yet to see the sun breaking through the thick crown of ghastly green leaves many feet above me. There has been nothing here that could break this eerie silence - no bugs, no birds, no animals, hardly any signs of life, the plant life bears no flowers, no fruits. Instead, signs of decay lingers for what seemed like an eternity, thick layers of dead leaves, fallen trees, the rancid stench that plagues the air...
Day after day, I could feel myself slowly giving way no matter how hard I resist, my eyes are getting increasingly swollen, my lips and cheeks feels taut and puffed, swelled and painful. Breathing has become more rapid but shallow and anytime, my lungs could simply give up on me if I don't push them hard enough...I just couldn't seem to get enough air to move on. The noxious air is slowly doing me in... My eyes are painful and extremely sensitive to touch, muscles in every part of my body are screaming in pain and begging for mercy, my bones crack and yell in excruciation with every step I take... I've lost even the innate ability to feel hunger and thirst...
I'm not sure how much longer I can go on...
