"SEMI-COLON"
By: Eleutheromania
"Her eyes ran out of tears to shed, so she forced her skin to cry instead."
In a pitch black room, there's a young lady sitting on the floor while looking intently on a thin sharp blade placed on the top of her wrist. Tears were streaming down from the pair of her beautiful dark brown eyes with perfect curls of lashes while her dry lips stained with blood from a deep cut wound trembles.
She can't hide it, because it's very evident how the cruel world made her think something awful like this. For she does not have someone to talk to plus the fact that she's undeniably
longing for the unconditional love from peers and family.
Not thinking twice, she slowly cut her wrist making her scream her heart out because of so much pain she can't even resist. Blood immediately squirted and flowed simultaneously from the freshly cut wound. And as few minutes passed by, she became as pale as a snow and fell on the floor with her eyes slowly closing, as if making her ready to be laid to sleep forever.
And then everything went black...
But she's wrong, for there's an extravagant light directly striking at the back of her eyelids. She slowly opened her eyes and took glance at the figure in her front, little did she know that it is God, giving her the most triumph smile; a smile that can give you a peace of mind. He, Who's patiently waiting for her to accept and hold His hand to be lifted up. Indeed, after placing her right hand next to Him, in just a snap of a finger, on a time of 0.3 milliseconds, all her worries were absolutely gone.
As fast as the flash of a camera, the light faded and her mind became concious hearing unfamiliar voices saying "clear" while someone is continously reviving her by means of pumping her chest to stop the loud noise which indicates that she's already lifeless. And after few minutes of a life and death situation, she was revived -- for her heartbeat became normal, even her vital signs.
She miraculously survived! And now decided to continue her journey in life with a newly equipped and positive soul.
The scar on her wrist may look like a thin line of the life support machine and be evident until her very last breath, it will surely serve as an eye opener on which made her realized that she was a lost sheep who deprived herself for giving the perfect curve that anyone can absolutely give -- a genuine smile.
She even realized that our life is like a semi-colon ( ; ) where the period ( . ) indicates rest or stop while the comma ( , ) means to continue.
So, what are you going to choose?
