The wind blows softly with the chill of the night air.I sit alone in my darkness, eyes closed and observing with my mind's eye. There is no better place to be! Distant lights flicker across the sea and the sound of unseen waves crashing to the shore help to ease my mind. There is no stress here, no pain and no frustration. Only peace...
I do not know fear of darkness, for it is what can be seen in the light that I find frightening and repulsive. Darkness has a way of blanketing over all of the world's problems and covering it with beauty. It is here that my mind wanders and my thoughts collect. No distractions and no worries. A dark mind is often mistaken for depression or evil. For me, it is the exact opposite.
Often times, I sit and wonder about my purpose in this life. I question the existence of God, or at least in the form in which everyone else believes. If nothing can oppose the will of God, then how can evil exist? Satan has been called the "great deceptor," hiding wickedness behind beauty. Even the Christians refer to him as "the most beautiful of God's angels." Yet evil is so often portrayed as grotesque and morbid. This contradiction has always fascinated me. Perhaps we are all being deceived indeed! There is a fine line between good and evil. I have yet to find anything in this world that is either completely good or completely evil. Isn't it odd that the most beautiful things in this world are also the most dangerous? Perhaps, it is not God we see in the eyes of a beautiful stranger...
I am but a whisper in a dream, a silent, ghostly, fleeting glimps riding the wind in the corner of your eye. You hear me breathing but you cannot see my face. You sense me walking behind you but when you turn about, you see no one. I am all around you, yet completely invisible. I am your guardian, protecting you through every step you take into the darkness that has become your life. Fret not! I mean you no harm.
