My resting place.
I was winning.
Every victory I have praises my name.
I was alone in my reign but I felt I'm invincible!
I never needed anyone.
They were saying my name!
In their eyes I was a hero..An inevitable one.
But all of a sudden my legs weaken.
I stumbled on the ground where I was standing firmly.
My strength left me.
Darkness blindfolded my very eyes.
I tried to stand but I couldn't.
I screamed.
I could hear them.
I could hear all their praises turning into curse.
Laughing at me..mocking me..
I called for help..
I shouted..I was losing my voice..
But no one came to rescue me..
That's when my thoughts came to me..
I was greedy.. selfish..
I thought I could do everything on my own..
The darkness was slowly engulfing me..
Leading me to my final breath.
Then light burst out from the darkness.
That's when I felt something.
A warm air was slowly soothing in my skin.
I could feel it.
It's hugging me..
I heard his Voice.
"My son."
Tears flowed down from my eyes.
"Is it You?". I asked.
"My son. I know you're tired. Come rest in me."
