Light...

  Ever blinding light...

  Fshes of blue fmes repy in my mind over and over as the heat within me begins to slow, the heat dwindles faster and faster as the light surrounding me begins to fade as quickly as it all began.

  The familiar darkness encroaches upon me leaving me adrift in that inky sea once more, a cold heaviness washes over my entire being, suffocating, freezing, trapped...

  I do not hear, I do not see but... but I feel?

  I feel my... legs?, arms?, head?, these words are foreign to me but yet my mind understands them perfectly.

  I focus on all these feelings and attempt to move, I push back against the oppressive cold that surrounds me and it begins to give way. Light begins to flood in around me as the cold crumbles away revealing a mesmerising sight, a yer of snow coating the nd around me, trees and leaves swaying gently in the breeze, an amber and pink sky illuminated by the setting sun.

  The sound of the wind blowing overhead, the sound of the leaves rustling in tandem, the sound of distance things chirping in harmony.

  I just y there... mind and feelings overwhelmed by the scale of it all. To think that the world could be so beautiful... so colourful..., in my haze I reach out an arm towards the sky and see... grey metal and stone.

  I lift my other arm in front of my face... grey metal and stone.

  Pushing myself up into a sitting position I examine the rest of my body, grey metal and stone, grey metal and stone, grey metal and stone...

  Why... why is everything around me so colourful... so beautiful but I am so... so..., an unpleasant feeling washes over me swirling around in my chest, my mind, my arms, my hands shake and I do not understand why... why do I feel like this.

  Overwhelmed I unsteadily stand to my feet and look around as the sun reaches the end of it's journey and the moon takes it's spot in the sky, everything falls into a sombre silence leaving me alone with my unpleasant thoughts and feelings in the darkness once more...
