Into the Darkness

So cold… So cold… Why is it so cold here? `“go into the darkness” Who…. Who’s there? Why do I see blood on the floor? Why did I see people suffering in pain? This… This is absurd…. Why would anyone? “Go into the darkness” What am I feeling? No…. No, please stop! I hurts Why am I screaming!? Damn it why is it dark? Where is this hatred coming from? I… I can’t… I can’t breathe!! Let me out! “Go into the darkness” Stop laughing god damn it!! “I’ll show you what real darkness can do to you” Im in the darkness at last.

I can understand that pull, that struggle to go "into the darkness" and find a place to hide... This is very deep and expressive, Abdeil. Great writing!

Darkness is easily penetrated by the smallest glimmer of light, it is not nearly as powerful as we imagine. Perhaps you are the light in that darkness and may simply not be aware of your true nature.
