The Fool

The Fool

A Story by ashlyn vik
"

"Neither satisfied by what she could have nor satisfied by what she couldn't, she spiraled downward into a dark abyss."

"
She wanted what she couldn't have and left the things she could have for dust. She saw excitement in the unknown and saw the things that she knew begin to fade away. She chased and chased, but never caught. Fueled by wonder she became lost in herself. Neither satisfied by what she could have nor satisfied by what she couldn't, she spiraled downward into a dark abyss. She knew she was wrong, but nothing felt right. Her satisfaction laid too thin. In grasp of what she couldn't have, she panicked because her expectations didn't meet reality. The picture she painted in her head would never be met. Which kept her chasing the unknown, losing herself one single piece at a time.
