    This is something I wrote about 10 minutes ago. It is something I felt I had to write, as it somewhat reflects on my current lifestage and what I am going through. Enjoy and any opinions are, as always, welcome.

    Stars shining in the sky
    Beautiful colours in a swirling haze.
    Pinpricks dotted here and there
    I know, I see, I believe.
    Somebody screams, my heart stops
    and I see my reflection
    in a pool of light.
    I see who I am;
    my mask removed and discarded
    my soul laid bare.
    I stare, unmoving;
    unsure of what I should do.
    Fight or flee? Run and hide?
    Yet I am stuck;
    I am paralysed and weak.
    My heart thumps and stops;
    it too knows the darkness
    it too knows me for who I am
    Leave me now for I am helpless
    Leave me now for I am Dead.
    Yet I shall be reborn again.
    Reborn and new.
    I am the Phoenix.
    And I shall come again

    Seems somehow related to your End of the World story, or maybe just a similar state of mind? :)
