I was living in a world of darkness, feeling lonely and depressed. There was no light, no love, no passion. There was no hope and nobody cared about the other.

The government made us like this with their laws. We weren't allowed to express ourselves with any kind, there's no hug or kisses, not even smiles. But, even if I have lived in this side all this time, lately I am feeling empty... like something is missing and I don't know what it may be.

Here, we were made to follow their rules, to follow their orders, to follow their program and routine. The only thing we were allowed to, was to wear their uniform, made of black to show off what side we were part of. And the most prohibited thing, that can make a man lose his head, is to go near the boundary where our side of the world comes to the end and the light side begins.

I had always listened to stories about the side of the light, about how they are different from us. That they are some kind of libertines, that doesn't have rules and doesn't care about wearing clothes, that they don't care about relationships or marriage, and they transform public space in a big sex session that anyone can join. I don't know if what they said are true or not, but one thing I know, I am sick of all the rules from this side.

That's why I decided to go to the line that separate the dark from the light, maybe I should cross the line and start a new life there.

The boundary is a place far away from every living being, and the asphalt and the city transform into a desert land. And the most surreal thing there is the landmark. That is a large tree split in half. But even if it is cut in the middle, the tree is still alive and standing. But one of the side of the tree has leaves on the branches and the other side is just empty and dry.

But the plan to cross the line came to an abrupt end when I saw you.

You are standing at the light side, where have green leaves on the branches

You are so different than me. You are wearing white clothes and not black like me. You have a lot of piercings adorning your ears and I have none. You are small and ethereal while I am tall and ordinary.
