Have you ever tried to hold on to your humanity? When others convinced you of being no more than a subject, an object that they can bend to their will? When they told you that you were a monster that deserved punishment? And you really could not remember your sins...

Time does not heal wounds. As Iβve recently learned. Their truth was pounded into me by pain, cruelty, and lies. I learned from this. I remembered. It nearly touched the essence of my understanding, becoming the revelation of truth. When they dragged me down the corridor with my shattered bones, when they operated on me to observe the misplacement of my organs, when they put the worst nightmares into my head. When they closed me up, put me together again and revived me over and over, to test the limits of my endurance... And when finally, after so many years, they told me my family was dead... Time does not heal wounds.

I have chosen you. You are remarkable, just like me. But you are losing your mind, my friend. You're slipping slowly into the abyss, and there is no one to give you a hand. And at the bottom, I am the only one waiting for you.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The human mind is a curious toy. Consumed by pain and madness it resists, but defends itself from what can set it free. The path to understanding leads through contradiction. We deny one simple fact. The fact that humans are the real monsters, and as such we should treat one another. Although, I had been deluding mysef otherwise for so many years. I have finally found my true nature. Remember that in the darkness, you are never alone. There is always someone who awaits your fall.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have faith that you are safe.
On your last stop you said, "the bright warm light will bring you home."
Did you lie?
My dear, did you lie?
The day is dark, I'm all alone.
If you are here just let me know.
When the ashes arise the light shall fall.
Will you find me?
When the sky is dead and forever gone.
Will you find me?
