This is a defination paper....One word to define ourselves
Sunset
A warm darkness surrounds me. A black velvet shroud blocks the peering eyes all around. I grab the shroud and pull its tight over my head as I ball in the corner weeping. I open my eyes to a crowded room full of cheerful and misled people. These people I call my friends and family. They are oblivious to the tears that stream from my soul. The warm darkness comes to a screeching halt as a painful sound bangs on my ear drums. I toss the covers to the side and that warmth dissipates into the cold reality. Another day of fake smiles and half hearted greeting is here. The nightmare of my life is played in my head everyday as I am drowning in the world around me.
Grains of warm sand flow through the crevices in between my toes as I walk hand in hand with the woman I love. The sand massages my worn and tattered feet calming my beating heart. Gold, orange and crimson engulf the sky, radiating outward from the setting sun. The waves slowly crash onto the shore washing away our beaten path and then reseed back into the endless ocean. A warm breeze catches her hair and tosses it in her face. I reach over with my callused hands and brush her silky brown hair back behind her ear. Her perfume dances in my nose like a bunch of ballet dancers. We sit down in the warm sand to watch the end of another day. It seemed like God was looking down on us. As the sun was setting it cast a reflection on the water pointing at us. As the angel and I gaze into the tranquility in front of us, our minds wondered from the origins of man to what real love is like.
We look into each others eyes. Her eyes bright blue with hints of yellow and green draw me into her soul. Her beautiful long black eyes lashes accentuate her gorgeous eyes with her beautiful long flowing brown hair framing her perfect face I get drawn in. Then her sweet soft pink lips just draw me closer and lock me into her soul. I lean over, eyes closed and heart about to explode in my chest and gently kiss her candy lips. My hands move to her face as our lips lock. I gracefully stroke her neck with my lips and my hands become more creative with her body. She playfully pushes me back. Placing her index finger on my lips, as she begins to expose the natural beauty God gave her. After allowing the scarlet rays to reach every part of her body she moves to mine to expose everything.
She then stands up and runs towards the darkening ocean and jumps into the warm shallow waters. She motions for me to join her. So I get up and begin to chase after her. When I catch up, I try to get back to where we were but she has other plans in mind. She grabs my right hand and pulls me into deeper waters. The waves begin to become stronger and harder to bare but with this angel into front of me I can’t help but ignore them. I kindly grab her by her shoulders and draw her close. As I begin to taste her sweet lips the sun finally sets and a black velvet shroud covers the ocean.
I move in with my eyes shut and all I catch is bitter cold ocean water. I look frantically for her. Nothing, she was no where to be found. I try looking for the shore and cannot find anything in the blanket of night. The angel that tasted so sweet, vanished. The waves begin to batter my confused body. Wave after wave my body becomes weak. I start to swim to what I think is shore. After swimming for what seem like an eternity I scream for help and there is no one to help me. I begin look ever which way. I try looking for the North Star. Maybe just maybe I’d be able to find my way back. The only thing that I can really think of is if those candy lips I was kissing were real. It seemed so real. Then I get snapped back into reality as a wave crashes down on me. I look to the sky once again and my thoughts are so confused that I can not make anything out. I begin to panic hysterically now, thrashing my arms and legs trying to keep my head above to water. I start screaming hoping that I someone or something would hear me. At this point if a great white were to come along it would be better then the feelings that I’m having. It would be only a few seconds and it would be over.
The surf starts becoming more vicious and drags me below the now fridged and black waters. I franticly swim to the surface but with no reward. The air in my lungs expire and I gasp for another breath but only get another taste of bitter salty ocean. Much different then the candy I had been taking for granted. The salty ocean water fills my lungs and the night’s events flash before my eyes. I try one last frantic cry for help but the water floods my mouth and takes the last ounce of life from my body. My cold lifeless corpse descends into the depths of the ocean where it lies in the middle of nowhere. Even in death no one is there to help.
How could I have pissed God off so much that the life that I live means nothing to no one. I have a black velvet shroud that covers the real me. Inside I’m drowning in the tears of my soul. My life is spent in a dream world where everything seems prefect but underneath I’m drowning and no one is there to help. If someone was to pull back the shroud and look at what’s happening beneath and save me from this horrible death I live daily. Then my life would have meaning. Until the day someone comes to lift the shroud I cover myself with, my life is lived in loneliness and despair. I continue to live my life with a black velvet shroud that covers everything and makes for a perfect back drop to fake smiles and half hearted greetings. Hopefully one night when I fall asleep I will no longer have to feel the way I do. But until that day I will live every day drowning, crying for help that never comes.
