A Light

Still sitting here, all alone. Still as a rock, in my new home. Not sure if I feel pleasure or comfort. In this blank place where I cannot hurt. I see a light, I don't know what it means. It comes in an orb, and not in a beam. After a while, I begin to question. Is there something any God forgot to mention? I stared at it hopelessly, and began to feel hollow. It flickered, it moved, and I began to follow. Then it hit me, I began to feel. Long forgotten that I am still real. After a while, I begin to fall. The light disappears, while I find myself in a hall. Upon picking myself off the floor, I notice something big and great; a door. Not just a piece of wood or metal, but a colossal structure, decorated with petals. Petals of a flower from a tree. A tree that no longer seems like anything to me. One with important meaning however. As I touch one, and furious, becomes the weather. Fighting the wind, it pushed me back pretty far. But as it died, the door was ajar. As I step through the giant gate, I begin to feel like a pawn of fate. Once again, the light comes back and leads me up a set of stairs. As a I hear a voice ask me "How do you fare?" Startled and afraid, I stumbled in fear. For who's words in my ear do I hear? An entity of death, as so he said. Stronger he grows with each soul he's fed. "To live on, or to be fed to me. Tell me now and I shall answer your plea." The question, circling round inside. Succeeding at showing the fear that I hide. How do I answer, what do I say? Which path is the better way? To learn and to love, full of possibility. Or to waste my time, submit to futility? A fate unsure, a path unclear. My next choice, my biggest fear...
