Just Persona Things

Just A Persona Thing[3]

This will be kind of different from the other two poems. It's kind of a short story so I'll force myself to write since I haven't written anything. Enjoy

"MINATO DONT!!!!" Everything felt like it was slowing. Time itself was going to end tonight, there wasn't to be a tomorrow to look forward to and wake up as usual. No, Nyx was here planing to put that cycle to a close...if every living thing is destined to die it would be tonight. The last night that the whole world witnessed...some wished for this while others struggled to come to terms with this sight. Not only is this something selfish played upon society it's grim...

If every living thing was destined to die, it would be tonight..

A small smile played upon my cold lips knowing deep inside I was scared. But if I could stand with this overbearing weight on me then it meant nothing...I wasn't afraid to die, I never was until now. But even so I can find myself to only stifle a sour chuckle knowing that I'm lying to myself deep in. But if it's for the sake of something so precious as life then, this IS indeed something I'm willing to do. I lift my hand up reaching out for the light as if it's calling to me; all voices were silenced. The petrified screams of the people of the world to the sorrowful cries of my friends...it was all silent to me. I only knew that I could do something like this, no one else was capable-what other choice did we have?

"If every living thing were destined to die, it would be tonight..." As those last words played upon my tongue I reached the inside of Nyx, the death harbinger itself. An egg stitched to all the corners as if tangled in a web, I see it as a manifestation of the human consciousness giving birth to this waiting for it to hatch. I knew that some day I would die...whether it'd be from a natural cause or by the hand of another, I never expected to come to this. But at the time being I wasn't able to think about my death as I was being thrashed around over and over...my lungs burning for air. Thinking a mere human like myself surpassing death was never a thought to have...but if I overcome something like this then my life was worth living after all. Waves of light pulsed through my body hearing the words of each person I created a bond with, something this simple was so powerful.

"Alright, let's do this.."

As I lifted my hand up once more and overwhelming light engulfed me putting death to a halt. I had nothing left to lose in this moment I did all I could and that was more than enough. Everyone will be met with normal days once more...as I take my final breath it makes me realize I was glad to be able to live.
