One step into the unknown, another to the depth
Midnight, winter, snowday. I am in the room waiting for everything
to end, things that never end, things that eat away my soul.
My mom comes to help me to stop the flood that I can’t help. But she
helps the wrong side. The water's flooding over me. The room's falling apart.
I start to run, run away from the flood that is running out of control,
run up by the stairs. I run as fast as I can, trying to reach the top.
I succeeded. Standing in the snow with bare feet, t-shirt and shorts.
Walking toward the cliff. Trying to think about every moment the same thing happened.
I turn my head, it’s here. I need to pick my choice. If I take another step into the depths,
there will be no me anymore. If I step back I will be swallowed again by the flood.
