The Gloom Parables: Chapter 2

Another part of many.

Sometimes i look into the mirror only to see a sad excuse of existence. Atleast the mirror isnt in pieces. Even if it was it wouldnt hurt as much as the thing looking into it. Do you ever drown in such faded hope for something better. Sometimes all these other beings come into your life and all they do is shatter those pieces more. And when those pieces start to hurt they break them even more and its the fault of those shattered pieces. Maybe it is the mirror thats wrong. Maybe if it wasnt so breakable things would be so much better. Maybe if it didnt exist things would be better. But remember, if that mirror didnt exist, the thing looking into it wouldnt see what really matters.

Hmmm as you mentioned in "The Gloom Parables: Chapter 1" that this is just free flowing thought and to ignore grammatical and structure so I will. The use of mirrors are always a powerful metaphor in a reflection into one's being and I think you have tapped into it for you personally. But I think you can find a way to meld your personal feeling of a reflection of yourself along side what that same piece of glass means to others and how they contrast toward one another. On a personal note, just want to say that because you're able to express these feelings publicly takes a lot of courage, so good on you.

Thank you for reading. As you might notice im not done with this. The Gloom Parables are meant to be parables for people to take a meaning from it. This chapter especialy is not really about me but about people who understands it. Pain goes a long way and people forget sometimes how truly beautiful they are. But thank you for commenting its very helpful
