Light


A black void

surrounds you

making you feel empty.

You fall torwards it,

almost welcoming it.

Somehow you feel it grow larger,

and larger,

until it swallows you whole,

then...

SNAP!!

a piercing noise,

then a flash of light.

The void disappears,

there is light!

Light! Everywhere!

You reach out,

your fingers struggling,

then a hand reaches out,

and you grab on.

There are more hands,

thrusting out of the light,

reaching,

reaching for you.

You smile,

and look back,

the void is gone.

Now there is LIGHT.
