Hello, all! So, my English teacher gave us a Daily Writing assignment asking what it means to "illuminate". I gave her a stereotypical, thoughtless answer, and poor, unhappy Erik gave her this..
Illuminate
It's so dark in here. So very dark! Help me, darling. Chase away these shadows, for you are the only one who can.
I am drowning in pitch blackness that saps from me my very will to live. I am weak, my love, and I cannot fight away these shadows.
You are my candle; the shining star glistening on me from the bottom of my well. You are my last chance at peace and salvation. Don't leave me here in the dark.
Be not afraid; I shan't harm you. I request only guidance. Save me, for I cannot save myself.
Did you enjoy? Let me know.
Yours always,
Emilie Rose
