I walked through darkness, on and on I walked. I knew that no destination awaited me. I was aware that it was meaningless. Yet despite that, I could not bring myself to give up. Some piece of me still vaguely remembered what it was like to be human. What I saw. What I heard. The weight of my own limbs. My own thoughts. I wasn’t wholly certain any of it was real. 

Desperate to cling to my self, nebulous as that concept was… I retraced an outline I wasn’t even sure was correct, over and over again. It felt as if the moment I stopped, I would cease to exist. I was… helpless. 

You were like the light of a flickering candle flame. Too faint to illuminate the path ahead. You were so small, so slight and fragile. And yet… you were all i needed, and more.”

there are no words. absolutely devastating.
