22 Aug A Shadows Embrace

I have come to both see and learn the treacherous way of this broken, isolated, and dying fucking world. I have begun to hold clarity when it comes to these things, during different times within different moments, and they have since begun to provide me with glimpses of cataclysms which have long since existed within everything that I know, and everything that I will come to know. The difference between where I stand now, and where I stood before the moment shadows begun to engulf this place – seems like a worlds apart, almost as if the state of fearlessness I stood in during that time, was nothing compared to the fearlessness that I know now.

I have now begun to embrace this shadow like never before, for now, as my dark hands stretch outwards, I am now also reaching towards darker hands which also reach out to me. It is within the shadows embrace where I will find the remaining strength to make it through this place of in-betweens, and to finally rid myself of the curse that I have been doused with for eons. 

For as of now, as I stare into the shadowed abyss, drinking down the poisons which will eat away at every speckle of light that remains from within, I am given the clarity to see in this darkness, to become one with these shadows, to harness a fierceness, fearlessness, and ferociousness that I have long since never been able to reach, but have truly desired. For the rules I once followed no longer apply in these dark and trying times, such as the person I once was, gone, erased – lying lifeless at the bottom of some violent and darkened sea.
