That was weird. I had another dream about two hours after writing the last
chapter. And I'm really tired.
I sat at the foot of a tree, my face in my hands. I had no clue how long I'd sat there. I didn't care. Guilt ripped at my heart, far more painful than any weapon. I slowly became aware of the damp tears wetting my palms. The dark, starless night provided no solace. I wanted to remain there forever, I didn't want to face the world. I started to cry harder. I could feel my body trembling with sobs. I gritted my teeth, tensed my muscles. Then, I felt a hand rest lightly on my back. I looked up, tears blinding most of my vision, but I saw him, his face concerned and sorrowful. He knelt down in front of me and I broke down in his arms, sobs racking my body. I knew he would do anything to console me, it hurt him to see me like this. I knew that I must be strong. I pulled back from his embrace and let one final tear, full of sorrow, slide down my cheek. He leaned forward and kissed my tear away. I let out a long sigh, I would be strong, I had to.
Carry me away, I need your strength to get me through this. Dare to believe, for one last time. And then I'll let the darkness cover me, deny everything. Slowly walk away, to breathe again. On my own. -Disturbed, Darkness. Oh, I love that song. I believe that's what inspired this chapter.
