PURPOSE, REASON, CAUSE

when darkness arise and light falls. You don't want to think anymore, cause your basic instinct would be telling you to run, hide and scream. But just this once, can i let my self be one with darkness? If i ran where would that get me? If i scream, will anyone hear me? If i hide, if i hide, is there a possibility that it wont find me? If i just stop trying and let go, would i still be breathing?

i made it capture me. A prisoner of darkness, sulking in whatever air i can. I cannot see, hear or feel, all the numbness came, filling me in. But in everything that there is, a flicker of light shines. giving me hope and making me feel alive again. i searched and looked for something to hold, trying to find a way to reach in and grab that light. i stumbled and fell but i didn't give up until i reached that light.

i could feel the light touching my skin. i remain unmoved by the sudden clashing of my body to the light. afraid? yes, but i can feel myself. i sensed my surrounding. am i home? or is this some kind of illusion? i opened my eyes and tried to see. nothing? an empty space, i closed my eyes wondering. why? why is there nothing. now that i see, i feel, i hear that i don't get to see anything? i stayed curled up and started to cry, wishing and hoping that something might change. i don't know how long it was, 30 seconds, one hour or days? i stayed at the corner, unmoving. praying for someone to answer. i lay, still. i couldn't open my eyes. i breathe in harder, tasting my atmosphere.

a sudden gush of wind startled me. i was afraid to open my eyes, not knowing what to see, i held them tighter. i felt the ground beneath me move. i felt isolated by this sudden change. i noticed my body gained strength. i stood up and for the first time i saw what the light meant.

PURPOSE, REASON AND CAUSE. i caught my breath and found myself in reality. trying to make sense of what had happened. in reality everything is black but when we find the true meaning of out lives, patches of colors appear, giving us HOPE and LOVE to live for.
