I tripped knowingly,
Like silent death, smooth and painless.
The land beneath me split,
I was floating in what seemed to be a well.
Dark and mysterious, monsters everywhere.
At a distance, I saw light, bright like sunshine.
I had to get there, before the monsters got to me.
I dived down with all my might, kept going down.
The light went further away from me.
Some monsters held my hand,
With time, their grip tightened.
They were not that bad after all.
I went in another direction with them.
I lost sight of the light. Where did it go?
Down, deep down, I am still afloat.
Searching for light.
It’s dark again, no one holding my hand.
The light was an illusion.
I am in a bottomless well,
My mind is barren, I have no way out.
My legs are motionless, I feel no pain.
Still, I am alive, breathing.
I see nothing, I hear nothing.
Sinking into oblivion, a faint smile on my lips.
There is no end, but there is hope.
