and all was still

for what is there to do but wait. wait for the day when the inevitable sweeps us up like shards of misery and discards of us, broken pieces no one wants to touch. in a world where sun don’t shine, and rain don’t fall, and nothing moves at all, what is there to do but hope against hope, without hope, that the day in which the stillness takes us, comes soon. because at least in hell, the fires burn to keep the darkness away.
