Eternal DarknessLiving in tears andeternal darkness. Everything looks so distant and unreal to me. My tears seem to comfort me and the eternal darkness wraps around me like a mother's arms to her child. There is a question at the back of my mind. A question which has no answer. In the darkness, a faint light awakens life. In the distance, in the dim light, there is the outline of the path which I have to take. This is one path, chosen for me instead of chosen by me. As I start on my way, the light flickers off, but I continue along the dark, unknown path. The path I am taking twists and turns, rises and falls, like a roller coaster. It's very rocky and unsafe. Abruptly, it stops, and there is no way to retrace my steps, for they have worn down to nothing throughout the years I have been walking. I look around me for the first time, and I see no one beside me. This path I was forced to take alone. I see my best friend and run to him, but he is just an illusion. All of a sudden, I am falling with no one to catch me. In dreams, you always wake up before you hit the bottom, but this is no dream. Though it seems unreal, it is reality. I sit down and cry my tears. They fall, seeming as though they never want to stop. I wait to be comforted, though no one is there. I wait in silence for a steady hand to help me along the way. The more I wait, the worse the path gets, though I don't know. No one came and answered my cries, so I got up, brushed myself off, and started again, along my way. The road I am walking upon stopped again, as though not sure where to go. I do all I can to get back on the lighted path, but it is no use, and I give up. My path became unbearable, I look for my best friend to comfort me, but he is not there, not even as an illusion. I am... Living in my tears and eternal darkness. |
