The shadows pull me deep into their dark abyss. I try to scream for help but as I stare into its eyes I realize I don't want it. I don't want to let it go. I know I must, but it draws me in. With every breath it breathes it calls for me. The darkness screams for me to be one with it, but as it screams I hear another sound. I turn to see a bright light. Strange, I thought I heard it singing. No wait, I did! from the light was a melody more beautiful than anything I've ever heard. I can feel the light trying to pull me in. I hear it's music but that soft melody, isn't near as strong or as viscous, as the screaming, darkness, that for some reason enchanted me. I turn again to look into the light I can see everything I need. I can hear that soft sweet melody. As I listen I feel as if I should be drawn to it, as if I should want it. Still I turn back to the darkness, I hear the screams of those in anguish. I hear the low voice of the shadows. I am pulled deeper and deeper, not knowing that the light behind is slowly disappearing. As I'm drawn deeper into the darkness, I notice I can't barely hear the melody, I turn to look at the light, but it's gone from me, I turn vigorously to see what surrounds me but I can't see. All I can hear are the screams of the shadows. I beg, I scream, I cry, I shout. "Somebody save me!" but no one hears me and the shadows pull on me trying to take me deeper into the dark. As I struggle for my freedom I stop, everything was silent. I looked up I could see a glimmer of light. I could hear the melody again, and the screams of the shadows were deafened by the sound of it; although the darkness pulls on me, and surrounds me, I have hope because I can hear the songs of the angles.
