As she awoken to the morning sunshine she opens her eyes to a day filled with possibilities and as the minutes tic away she glides into her day slowly not sure of what she will find. She has always known the darkness lingers nearby, but she is hopeful he doesn’t show his ugly self to her today.

She walks lightly today seeking out answers to the questions that cloud her mind. Questions that has her heart twisted like a pretzel inside of her. She turns to her music that has soothed her in times of sadness and despair.

As she begins to listen and as her mind takes hold to lyrics that send her into solitude that only she can understand. She closes her eyes in search of memories that have brought a smile to her once happy face and before she has time to react he enters. The darkness takes a hold of her and covers her like a blanket made of wool making her uncomfortable in her own body. Her emotions take over and tears begin to fall down her gentle face and confusion clouds her mind once again.

Darkness has her now and as she walks down the cold damp path with its thorny bushes and broken sidewalks she searches for that place she has become accustomed too. The darkness in her soul that she has felt for a long time reminds her that she is not alone. He is here with her whispering those lies to her.

One question burns in her soul tonight. When will he take her into the darkness and leave her there and will she finally find her peace if she remains here with him? Only he knows the answers and for now he continues his game until he has her where he wants her.
