As I reached into the bag of candy, I thought I heard a voice
saying, “Pick me, pick me!” I noticed a small white square which seemed to be
telling me to pick him. The voice was dark but friendly, “eat me, eat me!” It yelled
as I almost choose a different candy.
It was almost midnight and most of my friends had already went
home so I said why not and through the small white tab in my mouth. It didn’t
really have a taste which through me off, wasn’t this supposed to be candy? Oh
well, as me and my friend Tucker began our walk home, I realized that we both
ate the same candy. We were both unsure about it but continued on our way.
After about a half hour of walking I began to feel this energy building up
inside of me and so did Tucker. Another 30 minutes pass and I began seeing
things, like these waves of light move across the earth in this weird pattern
of red, blue, and green colors. This was all very strange to me and my friend
and we did not know how to take it all in.
Our minds started to think more clearly, a more vivid picture of
what we wanted, our thoughts were going what seemed to be the speed of light
and it was hard to control after a while. Somehow we ended up at park, it was 3
in the morning and it seemed like it was 3 in the afternoon. What our eyes saw
that night no one will ever know but us. I could sit here and try to explain
this night to you but unless you have eaten of this tiny white candy than you
cannot understand. It changed my perspective on things, and whats around me. I
do not think I will ever do it again though, it is not for me. Theres something
dark, something almost sinister about this little candy, something I might not
ever figure out.

The little white candy in your piece reminds me of the little white pill Mercutio gives Romeo before the party in the newer version of Romeo and Juliet. It's kind of crazy to think about our tradition of taking edible things from complete strangers on Halloween...you're really putting a lot of trust in others.
