Unbreakable

Unbreakable

A Story by Christopher J. Dawson
"

Written as a release during my fit of temporary depression

"

At the moment I feel sad and empty..

The things that should make me smile only coax a halfhearted grin behind sorrowful eyes

If I could, I would stop time.. walk between the moments of other's existence. Cut a silhouette through a snow storm admiring the captured motion of people trying to hurry out of it's cold

Hop in a small boat across still oceans and swim with the deadliest of creatures without fear, only respect and awe at the beauty of creation

Sit for hours gazing at the perfection of the ones I love, wishing they could join me in the stillness yet glad that i'm alone

Maybe one day I will get on the first plane out of here. See the world, experience life, soak in the culture of humanity.

I think I would start in Ireland, maybe see a castle.. but for now, I just sit submerged to drowning in the constant anguish of life.

One big test I tell myself, that is what life is. A test of your strength and virtue, can you still live peaceful and positive through all the pain and sadness.

I shall pass this test.. I may get caught up from time to time, but I shall remain unbreakable

And when my time here is complete, I shall join the ranks as an angel of heaven and I shall help you remain unbreakable...
