Author's Notes:
Try and figure out who's point of view this is from!
Valentines day and once again the girl of my dreams refuses to even acknowledge my existence. It is so infuriating that she only has eyes for a guy that doesn’t even care about her. He shows only cruelty and spite for her, in return she loves him all the more. It’s like she doesn’t even care that I’m here. I try and try again to show how much I love her, but every time she is looking the other way, at Him. I’ve tried being kind to her, tried to talk to her, but the only thing that I hear about is Him. He hurts her more than he could ever know, she is in pain almost every day, and thus so am I. Every time this day comes around I hurt even more, because today is one of the worst of all. I can write valentines all that I want, but she will never hear me. I am nothing to her, nothing at all. I am nothing to her and am empty inside, empty for all time. WHY? Why must she torture me so? Why must she cause me this pain? Why, out of all the people around her, she shuns the very one that cares about her?


Darkness,
pure and simple, peace, quiet, empty. Those of darkness find themselves lost to it, eternally alone. Roaming the world, lost without cause. I am of
darkness, and thus am alone. My hope is that the Wheel will turn, and I will be able to stand in the light, but that hope is almost lost. Humans
around me seem not to notice the swirling darkness in the world; they are oblivious to the very things around them, the things of darkness. Humans,
ignorant as they are, shine in the light, often blinding an unwary shadow, and leading to his demise. I am a shadow, and by my own course of folly I
have been blinded.

Shadow of Darkness, haunted by light. Shadow of Darkness, writhing in pain. Shadow of Darkness, trying to hide from the
agony. What is this in my chest? What is this incessant beating in my chest? And why is it the source of this liquid agony? Why did that Angel of
Light curse me so? Why did she place this thing within me? Angel of Light forgive me! Angel of Light take pity on my broken spirit! Angel of Light
remove your curse, let me live once again!
