Like a Leaf in a Storm

He had no idea how he ended up in the woods. He felt frozen and he was soaking wet because he had been laying on the snow covered ground for a dangerously long amount of time. His fingers, toes, and nose had all gone numb by the time he tried to stand up. His hands pushed against the frozen ground as his fingers sank though the thick layer of snow. His aching knees bent, but due to the poor circulation, his blood didn’t flow to his head quick enough, so his vision started to swim. He was almost up, but the strong wind had pushed a branch covered in snow which led to a huge pile of snow falling directly onto him, knocking him down like the ocean to a sand castle.All his hope and energy left his body as he crashed back into the icy hell. So this is the end. He thought to himself. He felt the numbness spread to his arms and lower legs, creeping through his back and up his spine. There was nothing left. The worst part, he didn’t even know who he was.
