Description
As I am with shadows, I breathe, this cold air, this world I know, this world that makes sense to me.
But, tell me, how am I supposed to live in the light?
People always try to come after me and take me out to see the light, even if I resist, because I don’t want it.
Then I end up following them out of curiosity and trust, just to be left in the open air, exposed to a terrible and cruel sun.
They tell me that darkness is unhealthy, terrifying, monstrous, but when I’m out in the light, feeling my skin as it burns, nobody is there to help me.
Instead, they laugh as they see this shadow running in circles like a feral animal to which some cruel kid set their tail on fire.
Then I go back to my abyss, hearing them from afar, screaming, calling.
“Come back here coward! You’re a monster!”
I’ll tell you, maybe, but if I am, what are they?
