Hi there everyone! We have all experienced and went through isolation differently. Personally my time spent in isolation I found myself extremely lonely with only myself as company and reminiscing on my "normal" life. I hope you all are able to relate to the feelings I portrayed through the main character, Travis during his time spent in complete isolation. Remember you are never alone and we are all in this together ❤ Enjoy!!
The two guards faced each other looking skeptical about what I had just told them. But without saying a word the second guard reached into his back pocket and as he pulled it out, my heart dropped to my feet. He tore a piece of black duct tape off the roll and slapped it right on my mouth.
“Stop making so much noise.” The guard said, slamming the metal door shut behind him.. How could they not believe?

The next few days dragged on as if everything were in slow motion and my only human interaction was with the guards. All I could do was sit there and think about how I should have gone to more family dinners when I had the chance or simply just called my mom. I miss her so much.

I officially lost track of what day it is. It must be at least a couple weeks because I've started to see my facial hair grow on my chin. I couldn’t remember the last time I showered or changed my clothes. My days consisted of sleeping about 20 out of the 24 hours of the day. The other four hours that I was awake, I did nothing but think about my life before the isolation. I thought about my friends and all the times they invited me to the movies, and I opted out because I was “tired”. Looking back, I would do anything to try again and cherish the time I was able to spend with my loved ones more.
