My fellow brethren...
I have ascended. But in our culture it is rather to descend. I have shed my body of the mellowdramas of being emo, and have become true Goth. There is a blankness in my eyes. I feel dark in soul, but it is comforting. As the ring is to Gollum, the darkness binds me. But it’s like a happy marriage. If none shall aid me the darkness will. I have become an animal, a part of the wall. When people look at me they’re looking through me at something far away. My eyes deprive me of tears. I cry for three seconds and then it stops all of the sudden and I feel wanting. But then even the wanting is overshadowed by the darkness. I look in the mirror and my skin has somehow paled far more than it has in a very long time. I don’t need eyeliner with the amount of black and purple tint there is under my eyes.
But the voice is still there. The one calling to me from above the surface of the water. I can only make out what it is saying by the tone of its voice, and what it usually says in that tone. It is trying to pull me out of the water, but for now it can only hold on to me for dear life, for if it let go, the waterfall wouldn’t be waiting anymore. I can see the face of the voice. It is bright and behind it glow the joys of the world. I don’t know what will happen now. I almost burnt my house down but stopped the fire cause I realized it is cringe to burn your own house. Ooh. I think if it ever so happens that I appear in the outside world,— nevermind. That would be false. In reality I don’t particularly feel inclined enough to melt the horrid demons out there. Anyways I am basically now an apparition. Just imagine the typical goth girl but not the evil kind the just “weird” one. The one people think there is nothing going on are upstairs. But that’s true. There is nothing up there. I only hear sounds. And when there are no sounds, there is scilence. And the darkness gums silently, and patiently.
I will see you other goths out there in Goth Nirvana some day. I am now on the path to achieve it. The blood is the root of all suffering.
Good harrows, the darkness feeds me.
