The way aheadA Story by Tinkerbell
Live are only the ones blessed with sight,
sight of the vibrant dazzling colours, the dashing grass,the rolling waves and much more. Sightless dark tunnels thats what I am doomed to watch. Dull are my thoughts.Duller are the dreams..visionless Cursed are my days ...cursed are my nights...curse of the unfathomable. My thoghts flew in as dark as my sight My musings were cut short by patterring of paws In came my ever faithful companion Silent Dame she was names for silent she was when she sat by me She has always been woth me for as long as I can remember She nudged with her cold nose. In response I ran my fingera through her soft fur we sat in silence.I loved her silence for it was neither punishing nor pitying Hours went by. Whistling of the wind pierced the silence.I walked to the window and pried it open,the cold wind rushed in fanning my hair and face.The curtains furled and unfurled and sang to me a song... a song hope and life And then a strange sound…a rumble from the sky and then pattering.Strange yet beautiful was the sound. Curiousity took me to the door.With Hands on the knob ,I carefully listened for footfalls,but none came.I turned the knob and pried it open and stepped outside for the first time in many days closely followed by Silent dame. I stood barefooted on the ground,my hands outstretched to welcome the source of that strange music.And I felt it. ... Hope. Hopes of the grass ,the trees,the birds and all things that are living. See I couldn't ..but I felt it as I stood there. Washing away the darkness within and making way way for the light. Silent dame tugged me and I heard footfalls. The footfalls were followed by a voice calling my name... my mother's voice. I stold still enjoying the sweet fall.Her voice came closer and stokd by me.I could feel her gaze on me.I slowly turned around, hugged her and with tears in my voice murmured ..."I could see it all.I could feel it all.I found a way ahead " I felt the smile in her voice as she replied "ofcourse you could.i always knew you would find a way out" She the took my hands and carefully led me inside .Silent dame happily followed us in. © 2018 TinkerbellAuthor's Note
