Neverending Story
Make believe I’m everywhere
I’m hidden in the lines
Written on the pages
Look at what you see
Cinder that refuses to be estinguished,
Relics forever finding life.
Lost & forgotten fables,
Reside in these weathered walls.
Amidst the shadows, they stir,
Craving to be discovered
To reclaim their rightful place in the light.
Each crack, a proof,
Their stories, though silent, speak.
“The Nothing is spreading,” groaned the first. “It’s growing and growing, there’s more of it every day, if it’s possible to speak of more nothing. All the others fled from Howling Forest in time, but we didn’t want to leave our home. The Nothing caught us in our sleep and this is what it did to us.”
