It's flooded over what I thought I knew
And I no longer have the shelter I once had.
I'm open and I'm scared.
Vulnerability, I thought was always a strong point for me.
That's not true.
I'm going mad;
I'm just so sad.
I can't see anything anymore,
But I can feel everything.
It's destroying me.
It's emptying me.
I want to stand up stronger.
But, I do not know if I can.
I want to see something.
But, I'm not sure I would be able to see correctly.
Something is calling.
I can hear it.
It sounds familiar.
I'm afraid to follow.
It continues to call.
I can hear it saying my name.
I must take a step forward.
Everything is so dark.
That is what scares me.
I can no longer tell what will happen next
And I wish I could.
I have to move, though,
Or the darkness will only consume me more.
I'm not sure what to do.
I have to make a choice.
The one that frightens me more seems to be the only logical choice, though.
So I will walk forward.
I will risk walking,
In this darkness,
Hoping that it will lead to the light.
Hopefully the light will shine in a beautiful hue.
And hopefully, that light will lead me back to you.
