NOTHING
by laDy ruLebrEaker
"Sometimes one pays most for the things one gets for nothing."
~Albert Einstein
He stared out the window and thought of his dreams. The dreams he had that vanished in just a blink of an eye. The dreams that drove him to the farthest reaches of the world. The only problem was, as he stared, he saw nothing.
After all that has happened, nothing seemed to matter anymore. He did nothing, said nothing, NOTHING was all he felt.
He could hear the rain falling freely from the sky. At first it was slow, then it came crashing to the ground with no hopes of ever going back to the sky that once was their dwelling place. He thought himself the rain. An ironic situation that weighed deeply in his heart.
He was still looking out the window hoping that if he stared hard enough, his eyesight would return. But that was just a stupid thought. He felt tears running down his cheeks. At first it was just a drop, but then it never ended. He heard the rain again, and thought the rain must be his tears. How stupid indeed.
He wiped them hurriedly when he felt a presence. He could smell her scent, his favorite smell. But he did nothing to acknowledge her presence. She stared at him, and he knew she felt his pain, and as she moved closer, she wiped the tears he didn't know were still falling from his now blind eyes.
That was then he realized, he was blinded. In sight and in heart. She knew what he thought, and she was sad, for she could do nothing about it.
"I have nothing left…"
"Sir, you forgot… IM STILL HERE."
