The Night

There i lay - sad and broken, with no chance of getting up.

The cool breeze touches my face like a flower - soft and touching through its unique fragrance but finds it stone cold, not moving the slightest.It accepts no change as it knows that any hope would just be an excuse to go on. Advance in a world where hopes are as empty as wood eaten inside-out, having no chance of survival, no strength, no base, just ready to fall apart at the slightest push.My eyes wander in the dark trying to find a source that proves my mind and its despair wrong, but in vain. Even the darkness has betrayed me as its black yet strong existence once was a pleasing companion, sharing my journey and my thoughts without revealing any chance of betrayal. As the night darkens, my hands make their way up the cold wood hoping to come across an agent of change, but little do they know no such thing exists...

The little body that once enjoyed the sweetness of love and the tenderness of care, now lays stillin a state of shock - which once itself was an alien feeling, but now is the only friend present. Events go through my mind, playing themselves repeatedly. Each one has a sweetness that injects itself in the mind, spreading and creating enornomous pain as it goes in a place where it doesn't exist anymore, its only signs being the pain that is felt when it is remembered. I close my eyes, my hands stop moving after realizing reality that is embedded with despair.

The sweet memories now turn into bitter ones, infecting my heartwith pain, without repeating themselves until they find my heart numb and lifeless,not being affected by anything - not even my mind! My eyes jolt open, trying to find a way to solve this mystery. My hands start moving again, wanting to change this state of numbness but alas ! I lay there staring but I do not see anything, my hands keep on moving but i don't feel anything until it all stops ...

I then see the night leave, the rays pushing its very existence away or the night itself gives way to the light it seems, the darkness now is invisible wearing the cloak of light .. its end surprises my eyes. My hands now rest on the cool floor I get up to savor this moment of change, wishing it were all happening inside me. My mind is now balanced through this newfound source of happiness, trying to replace the despair of my heart with the hope that once lightened this dark place .....................
