Awakening 🕯️ (8)

Meeting Moon certainly was a noteworthy experience, but Kid soon goes back to play with his friends, who had come up with a game ⎯⎯⎯ well, only one of them seemed to be very passionate about it. Kid is on board and finds it quite fun to play pretend, even though he needs directions as to how he should behave . . . things go well until the story takes a turn which rubs him off the wrong way, for a reason he couldn't pinpoint. All that he knew, was that it was unfair, and felt horrible. Unable to explain the effect it had on him, he runs off, dropping the story altogether. His friend wonders if the Princess shouldn't just get back with the Prince, without realizing that this story might ring true with another, to an extent that all of them are unaware of.

i really like to believe that Alef / Resh aren't really the same person, even if technically, they are. but Resh is more of the humanoid form of the darkness that has taken over Alef's body, if that makes sense? i imagine there was probably a period during which Alef had a sort of internal battle ( that he obviously lost ) , against the growing darkness inside of him. much like darkness absorbs light, perhaps light was absorbed from Alef, and Darkness has replaced it, in a similar fashion that when Light was drained out of light creatures, they became dark creatures? an empty shell of what they used to be? something of the sort... eitherway, I am fascinated by this concept ( as you can see )

Awakening 🕯️ (7)

Meeting Moon seemed to be an exhilarating experience for Kid, as someone who had never met another so shiny before. And Kid's perspective remains quite limited. Someone else sees the Moon's arrival as some sort of sentence, a reaction born from years long guilt and remorse. But Mekh seems to know things that others don't. Moon's arrival has made her cross paths with the child she apparently had already seen a long time ago, before the events of the Shattering. How could it be that it was the same child who has reappeared so long after? Why could he have been hidden in the first place? What Mekh believes for sure, is that Teth has a lot of secrets, many upon which rests the Fate of the world.

Does Mekh's perspective paint the events as they were? and . . who really is Kid?

Shattering.

Alef / Resh has been living rent free in my head for a while and I just can't stop thinking about how everything led up to the shattering . . How Alef's person gradually slipped away until he was unrecognizable, and replaced by a corrupted version of himself, unreachable since he was trapped within his own darkness. Starting off with good intentions, only to be lifted so high he believed himself to be a god; aiming for eternal light only to be plunged in eternal darkness. A never-ending storm of rage and all-consuming darkness.

"If only I could apologize,

Apologize a million times,

as many times as there

are stars in the sky.

If only I could apologize

for not being strong enough,

for having allowed you

to be hurt by this cruel world.

I welcomed you in a world

that has offered nothing,

but pain and suffering.

Yet in my heart full of sorrow,

you bring a light that

was unknown to my soul.

You are the sun that has

calmed my eternal storms,

and has made my rainy days

more tolerable.

You are too small to bear

any burdens.

Let me carry everything

that weighs upon your heart.

I will carry a mountain

to save you any ache.

I will carry a mountain

so one day,

you might forgive

my mistakes,

If God forbid, you may

ever remember the

pain I have caused you.

Yet I long for you to

remember me,

to remember me,

as the one who has

carried you,

into the sunlight.

I will hold you close

to my heart,

I will carry you until

you refuse the safety

of my arms,

and the sound of

my broken heart."

Some impromptu verses to accompany the video, which relates to my Awakening series 🩷

War and Heartbreak

"Has the Lord sent you to War to keep you

Away from me?

Has the warmth of my love filled the Sun

With Jealousy?

What wrong have I done by putting my

Heart into your hands?

I promise, I never would let you carry

the weight of my guilt.

But you are acquainted with the rain

that pours out of my eyes,

and all of the words that remain

unspoken.

The Sun is too cruel to be merciful,

and my skies shall remain darkened.

If only I could rid myself of the knowledge,

that you will be torn apart, reduced to a shell.

My heart is made of glass,

Hidden within a cold forest,

Yet every single shard reflects

None but your face.

I long for you to come back,

But War won't leave you unchanged.

You promise you will be alright,

that it should, in no way, add to my guilt,

but day by day, my heart turns to stone,

and tears flood my rivers."
