everything and time

dead bodies are everywhere. they are littering the streets, hanging out of delapitated buildings, floating in swimming pools, stinking up houses, laying on desks at school, fallen into the freezers at grocery stores, still burning from bon fires, and piled up in churches. It is like they all died at once and it just happened.
i woke up, and it was like this. not even five minutes ago i noticed the devestion looking out of my bedroom window, which faces the street. there were buildings on fire where cars crashed into them. Horns and sirens, with alarms still blaring. there was no other sounds then that, and the burning flesh of the victims. why did this happen? how did it happen? why not me? if im the only one left, why should i still be alive?
i walked outside and screamed "Hello! is anyone still alive!? does anyone need help!? Hello!....." there was no answer, but i still tried only in vain.
hours, or was it days?, later i still roamed the streets looking for anyone who survived like me. the sky was black with smoke so i relied on my wrist watch to tell the time. with all the bodies i seen the panic was setting in. was i really the only one still breathing?
a couple on a park bench had died holding hands. i was full of despair knowing i would never feel love again. A fury was boiling inside of me. THIS CANT BE HAPPENING!
i started beating the guts out of the couple, and out of all the bodies i seen, throwing the corpses around, busting heads open and leaving the blood leaking into the streets.
i took a police car and raced down empty streets full speed with the lights on the rooftop rolling red and blue. hanging out of the window with a shotgun that was in the car i started popping off rounds into windows and cars, buildings and people. i ran over the bodies that lied in the streets. the thumping sound as i went over them made me cringe at the brutality, but i was the law now i have the authority to do as i please.
I am legend had nothing on me, atleast there were the zombies to play around with i literally have no one.........well, except for my dead bodies.
who knows how long i will be alone? when will I die? not a soul was left, the animals are dead too, plants are wilted, and the only thing i have is canned food to last. the world is too big for me to make it my own, but where i live will be mine. planes and helicopters, boats and cars still work. the world is my land, and i'll reap what i sew. maybe frankenstein had it right. who knows maybe i can play God. It's worth a try because all i have now is time.
