Into the Erebus

And what is darkness?A mere absence of light.

I got deep down there, in the darkness.I knew it was a mistake.I knew that,as an average human being, I was weak and so easily conquered by my own passions,emotions,memories...But I was so devoid of inspiration,of emotions,of life, that a plunge deep into my very own past would rejuvenate my hollow soul again,activate those nerves again...

Oh, how could I do this to myself! I saw all those familiar faces screaming at me,as if a music heard from far-off,forgotten for a while but always flashing back in my mind and inflicting such pain that only a heroin needle could cause,while it injected the lethal poison in the veins...
Emotions almost brought me to my knees,begging for the past to unchain my tormented soul,I almost shrank deep into the darkness like a child hidden in its mother's protective arms...

I broke down and cried, cried, cried till the heroin was pushed out of my veins, until the needle stopped hurting my skin...I knew it was wrong, I knew that one should not mess with the darkness,for darkness is such a destructive force...
