Unholdable Things
How is it possible to find a light at the bottom of a pit?
It's not right?
I am a pit of loathing and despondency. So why should I look for those shiny things that dull once within my hands?
It doesn't make sense right?
Still, I too, though I am a cavern of sadness and loneliness, want to know what it is to be shining, to feel what it is to have radiance.
I swear I will return the shiny things, I swear upon the darkest parts of myself.
3 covenants
Allow me to hold the shiny things, just once, just once.
