  1. [A4A] Crawling into the light [Dark]
  2. I liked /u/CreativeBean18's tweak to make it multiple people so much that I reworked the original a little to accommodate it more readily.
  3.  
  4. It has been a long dark journey these past years.
  5. A journey I have taken alone.
  6. One that you set my feet upon.
  7. I see something in the distance,
  8. Or rather I think I do.
  9. Is it my mind tricking me, again?
  10. Could it be real?
  11. I think I see a speck of light.
  12. I walk towards it,
  13. I start running, faster and faster.
  14. Something unseen trips me,
  15. I stumble and fall, in pain,
  16. The light, it definitely is light.
  17. I begin to feel its faint warmth on my skin.
  18. I try to stand, to continue walking towards the light.
  19. I stumble again, unable to stand.
  20. I scream out into the darkness,
  21. begging for I don't know what.
  22. I sit and start sobbing uncontrollably.
  23. Until I realize that I can still crawl if nothing else.
  24. So I begin to crawl, slowly, methodically towards the light.
  25. It is a slow, so very slow journey now.
  26. As I feel the heat and the light is blinding,
  27. I see something new.
  28. I disbelieve my eyes,
  29. Surely they lie to me.
  30. But, they didn't earlier,
  31. Maybe I am seeing them...
  32. Two pair of hands reaching into the dark,
  33. Offering to help.
  34. I tentatively reach out for one set of hands.
  35. I feel the flesh of a pair of hands clasp mine,
  36. I desperately reach out for and take the other pair.
  37. I feel them start to pull me,
  38. pull me out of the darkness,
  39. and into the light.
  40. I begin to cry uncontrollably,
  41. maybe from the brightness,
  42. maybe from what I see.
  43. I see the most beautiful people in the world,
  44. and they pull me into their arms.
  45. Holding me tight, telling me that it's alright.
  46. That it will all be alright now.
