Oblivion

It's long, it's really narrow and it never ends. I want to stop but I just keep going.

The silence is deafening, the stairs are steep and the spikes lined on both sides of the walls constantly jab me into the realization that i am alive.

Wait, i thought...

No! It can't be, but what about the sweet release i felt, after i'd shut my eyes and felt life leave me?
Even on this other end, i'm still troubled. Maybe if i kept walking... Perhaps

Where am i going though? i can't see as it's pitch black. I can only grope my way through but even that is tortuous, so i lay down. There are creatures circling my feet, sewer Rats?
I feel empty.
I feel lost, in so many different ways...

As i slip into unconsciousness, i start to yearn for the things i'd missed; the voices of my loved ones, a warm hand on my wrist & a rib-cracking-straight-from-the-heart bear hug of a friend :)

Then i smile at the last thing i saw as my eyelids lower, before my dark descent... the beautiful grey sky.



Author's note: I wrote this to redirect my thoughts from my (almost) depressed state. I'm not sure if it'll make any sense to anyone, but heck! i posted it anyway.

Bye now
