     Have you ever tried to see the world by closing your eyes? This is basically watching the world from the darkness. Ironic but that is the very essence of it. You stare right into a world you are familiar with only in your sleep. You eliminate the light that once guided your sight and you rely on the serene feeling the darkness could provide. You stare right into the abyss hoping that it would stare back and let you see the world in a way far different with what you're used to.

     So what can you see upon trying to view the world with your eyes closed? Nothing's definite. One can say they've only seen the nothingness. No, it's not black. It's nothingness. Others can claim to have seen the world which their mind has projected. Various images pop out right from your mind. Be it conscious or a subconscious one. Some say they've seen sceneries they've experienced themselves. Others say they've seen mere images the their mind has generated. Some have seen the "light" as they' claim.

     After asking these questions, what really is it that I've seen? What I've seen is a world far different from ours, a world that could be described as something near indescribable. What I've seen is a direct stare back from the abyss, from the world of nothingness. What I've seen is a world where darkness is the light. What I've seen is a world where despair had slowly been turned to hope. What I've seen is a world of damaged creatures, damaged creatures that continues to struggle away from the nothingness, from the nothingness that has been pulling them back. What I've seen is a world where even the smallest of hope is turned to aspirations, to dreams, to goals.

     What I've seen might surely be a world of the twisted. But no matter how twisted that world is, no matter how damaged those creatures are, no matter how hopeless that scenario is, I've learned not only to like but also to love and embrace that world. That might have not been the world I'm dreaming of but that is the world that I've learned to admire. For in that world, I've learned how to struggle, I've learned how to rebel, I've learned how to stand. For in that world, I might have been a lone wolf but I have been a lone wolf for I have chosen to be so.
