Isolation

LC's Here comes the Sun prompt.

By Novel AllenPublished 4 months ago Updated 4 months ago 1 min read

Ah...Woe is what I have become.

WOE!!!!!!

In life, I confess , I had done some terrible things.

In death, I had no doubt... that I would be sent to the murkiest pits of Hell.

But not even within my deepest, darkest imagination had I been prepared for the violence of the beasts and demons of the Underworld.

How they clawed and spit, biting, chewing - sucking the blood of my innards...all the while gorging on their own selves to get to me. We walk in unholy Fire here. It is everywhere.

As soon as my skin heals...they attack again. There is no mercy here in this place.

But I deserve it. I, who was so wicked.

Yet, I would gladly repent...If only I could see the Sun just one more time!

Oh, how they have lashed and scourged my poor hapless, ill-fated body. Thorns, hellfire and demon blades rakes my flesh mercilessly.

If only I could live my life over again - I would choose to be good...It now seems like a hollow wish...a platitude we spout when our sins overwhelm us - and the devil gets to have his way.

I beg of you...all who may ever read my confessions. Do not be wicked like I was. For in Hell, a nightmare awaits. You will long for Death...

But Death does not live here. Only an endless torment by the scourge of heartless monsters who eagerly await to devour your body and soul.

Eventually...you will become them. And you will hide your face from the Sun.

Alas! I too, have become Hell's monstrosity. BUT....

HE - has taken pity on me.

Given me permission to walk above...Demon now Am I.

Lurking in the shadows.

Heh heh heh. I spit on the fire-less ground.

Ah, yes. Here comes the Sun.

F%#&*#g Sun. Where were you when I needed you.

Begone from me.

Hidden In the darkness of the day...I wait for the sky to sleep.

I no longer crave forgiveness.

I am now ready to feed on your souls.

Spring...what Spring

God Help You all!!!!!!!!!
