40: Feel Dead

There are some parts of the night where the mind and its thoughts are inescapable.

They consume every positive and optimistic feeling you might think you have, and leave you with a powerful dread and depression.

It's funny that even if you try to change the topic of your thoughts, this feeling overtakes and steers you back down the path of loneliness and helplessness.

Before, maybe this would have been easier? 

Possibly it would have been slightly more controllable?

But unfortunately the mind has fallen into this all draining pattern where there's nowhere for you to return from and recover.

It turns into you feeling heavy, tired - done with the world.

Done with your life?

If you were gone, then these problems that seem to plague you wouldn't be of any importance.

They would simply fall into the white noise with you, and it would never be stressful in this strange new plane of existence.

Perhaps it would feel like you've reached some sort of heaven, and automatically feel fulfilled with how you conducted yourself here on Earth.

Or it wouldn't be the first time someone has been disappointed.

But then that one entity would guide you, take your hand.

Forgive you for what you'd succumbed to and done to yourself.

It would all be alright.

And with a warm embrace they'd say,

"Well done earth angel."

And your new world would be waiting, 

just beyond the gates.
