15 Apr Shortcomings

Failures had been the plague of the last era and have hid in the shadows of this one. They are like a breeze of sorts, suddenly sweeping you up, influencing all of those around you. You become entangled in them, trapped, and before you know it you are begging mercy to the fall once again. I have seen it all too many times, I have experienced it all too many times, but part of my all is left wondering what we would be without these failures.

Time and time again I have fallen, stumbled, scummed to the temptations that seek to claim all that I am in this physical shell. Even now, with the Cavern walls far behind me, I seek for some exit that feels so far from reach, yet so close, all at the same time. Left wondering if I am ever to reach that place, I know the lands that stand before me now must be traveled before I am to find that door, or perhaps what I am seeking is merely in plain sight.

The last day’s of this strange place are now at hand. And while the silence still remains from your corner, I know that it is probably all for the best. Though my heart still aches of the thought of the failures that had taken place, the exiles, and these time shifts that ultimately brought an end to all that I knew and loved, this from the chaos within this calamity birthed something great, something stranger, and while I have still yet to discover what that is, I do know that I will never stop seeking, never stop trying, for my heart has begun to slow and my eyes quickly growing tired. My soul however, has been lit with a fire that is forever burning, stronger and brighter, and from this flame will come the strength that will push this shell of mine to it’s limits, onto the ends of these places.
