A moment in my head……… Salvation, or Damnation? I am the one you see in school, town, or just lying around the house. The one who hides behind a mask. I dont speak, or am I forbidden to speak? I cannot hear. Why cant I hear? It is because fate herself has scorned me for trying to change what I have no control over. For the sin I have made against her, I am now forced to live my life in the shadows. Watch as my friends, family, wanted lovers live their lives to the fullest. All that I am able to do is let them dump their burdens, sorrows, and grief onto me. The darkness is the only home that I know of. Is this my Damnation, or is this my Salvation? For now I consider this to be my Damnation. Only until the shadows finish devouring my soul will I find my true Salvation.
