I am still, staring into the horizon as the world shifts around me, writhing in the light of the setting sun.
Since waking, though I've found the strength to walk forward, I walk alone, each step ringing through the fabric of time in a sorrowful tone, my heart harmonizing in determination to carry forward to that which is inevitable. As I walk, the fallen and dead line the streets, all civilization ablaze with falsehood, lies, and deceit. Through the echoes of wars and rumors of wars, I hold, for I know the end is soon. In every passing day, I await the end of my suffering, though I feel I have not yet begun to suffer in the way I deserve, as familiars past whisper hauntingly, my chest bleeding steadily from the hole I once carved.
And still, I hold the darkness within, the anger and envious bitterness that claws away at my soul; the self is no longer denied in the wake of truth, and in truth, as a mirror before me, I feel the greatest joy and the greatest pain, that integrity is not gained without the acceptance of that which truly is, and what I am, I do not fully understand. As I near the end of my path, I see shadows form in the air and litter the streets, eventually obscuring the city and its people. The time is at hand.
Many days, I feel similarly. None are without the gravity of everything I know and love falling to ruin, without the pain of loneliness, without wondering if I've neglected anything, anyone. The world will be eclipsed, for a time. I believe it's highly important we retain what humanity we have left in whatever capacity we're able, and to hold on to what we can wherever possible and reasonable. I feel things may soon surpass reason.
Flittzy's animesque 'Circles' is a very close second, but NeverLastStanding's 'Go With Me' has recurrently sprung up in my thoughts since the album's debut from the words of encouragement of our Equine friends, given in as heartfelt a manner as those found in Foozogz' works C_||_R
