Love on the Battlefield
Chapter one- Lead me for I am blind
Dark clouds hovering above that shoot water bullets upon me. With each blow I take from the miniature pebbles it sends shockwaves of pain through-out my body but yet still I feel nothing.
I am empty although I am full of kindness, love, loyalty and so much more, I am alone even though I am surrounded by others dear to me. I feel like I have run away from my worries although I haven't even moved an inch.
I stand in the cold, harsh winds with my head held high and invisible walls of iron and steel; up protecting myself from receiving further wounds.
My fair creamy skin turning old with wrinkles from standing too long in the pouring rain, my cheeks flushed pink and soft, plump lips trembling from what others would think as the low temperature but if you look closely into my dark-brown almost black eyes, you might be able to see other-wise.
"Splash! Splash!" the only sound that registers in my brain as I make my way down the muddy path to the old, rundown house of my generations before me. You could see my black boots, muddied and old with leather worn away slowly ascending the three steps that lead to the door that I may not be able to turn back from.
Heart racing a mile a minute but I never stop to try to slow down the speed because I would be giving myself a chance to turn around and walk away.
With my steady right hand I curl my fingers inwards to my palm and lightly tap the wooden door that has been going through the process of corrosion. Again all that registers to my brain is the light knocking sound that I have produced.
The door opens with a creek revealing a bright light, hopefully the light that will lead me out of the darkness.
