I
was falling
Into
the infinite below
Or
was it the depths of
My
own evil,
I
do not know.
My
hand broke my fall,
It
pained,
The
same hand
Which
inflicted on you so much pain.
The
path ahead of me
Was
dark.
Was
it the darkness
In
my heart it signified,
Or
was it the simple
Absence
of light,
I
do not know.
This
is the same heart
Which
coaxed me to give you
So
much pain
I
stood where I fell,
Looking
at my few options,
Thinking
about them
With
my mind.
The
same mind which
Planned
the pain
I
gave you.
Helplessness
dawned over me,
Showing
me that the
Only
way is forward,
My
only future was to
Walk
through.
I
walked and walked,
Not
knowing my way,
Not
certain of my goal,
But
held on to the last straw of hope,
That
it would lead me to you.
A
cold breeze swept
Through
the path.
Strange
voices calling
Out
to me,
Troubling
me,
The
same way I did to you.
The
surroundings became
Ghastly,
Did
it signify my evil deeds,
Or
signal the oncoming of the devil
To
take me away?
I
do now know.
Even
with all the
Pain
I inflicted on you,
You
never left me,
Never
gave up,
Always
re-iterating,
How
great our friendship
Is.
Looking
back now,
I
could only shudder
At
all my past actions.
But
all I could do
Was
walk ahead.
I
was scared,
Not
at the
Uncertainty
of my future,
But
at the prospect
That
I’ll never
Meet
you again.
The
sound of my own
Footsteps
haunted me,
Sending
a very human
Chill
up my spine,
Which
I’m sure you’ve felt,
So
many times.
Your
silhouette
Only
reflected your purity,
Always
so quiet, so calm
So
composed,
Always
nurturing what you had.
You
were always blooming
Under
the sun,
Always
soaring high
Into
the infinite,
Your
shadow dancing on the ground.
I
do not know what I was
All
this time,
But
certain I was
The
one causing you pain.
You
were the embodiment
Of
light,
Spreading
hope and joy
Where
ever you went,
Extinguishing
darkness,
Replacing
it with light.
If
only,
My
voice could reach
back
through to the past,
I
would tell you
How
much I miss you.
If
only
You
could give me
A
sign that I would
Meet
you again,
Show
me that path,
I
would walk on spikes,
Run
through fire,
Carve
a path through hell,
Give
up my life,
If
only you would give me
A
sign.
My
emotions took over me,
And
tears trickled down my cheeks.
Why
this happened
I
do not know.
As
I continued forward,
Wondering
whether we
Will
meet again or
Not.
The
breeze,
Still
as strong.
Maybe
I’m dreaming,
But
I could see
Ten
millions of small lights,
Fireflies,
Flying
all around,
Extinguishing
the darkness,
Replacing
it with light.
Is
it you my friend,
Or
am I dreaming?
I
do not know’
‘And
the fireflies came
Closer
to him,
Re-arranging
themselves into
A
figure he longed for
So
much.
His
smile grew larger,
Brightening
up his face.
Their
hands reached out once more,meeting,
And
eventually he collapsed,
Knowing
that he had reaches
Paradise.
Was
all this that happened real
Or
an illusion?
All
taking place in his mind,
he
does not know
And
neither do I’ .
