She walks eyes closed
          Through the mist
          
                                 "reach out...reach out"

UNAWARENESS IS A SIN

          Darkness means nothing to those who see

                                 "please, I am slipping!"
          
WHY ARE YOU NOT CONSCIOUS?

          Dew gathers on her skin
          rolling down her cheeks
          each drop swallowing the next
          as its desire to consume
          becomes greater

AMBIVALENCE IS A SIN

                                 fingers release...

          She walks eyes open
          Through the mist

                                 "you did not try"

          Light means nothing to those who are blind
                 
                                 "why? why? why?"

YOU HAVE NOT LISTENED, MY SON

          Light hits the mist
          refracts
          creates a wall
          a wall of...
        
THOSE WHO CANNOT SEE ARE STOPPED BY THAT WHICH THEY COULD PASS

                                 "what if you were I?  
                                     and slipped into..."

MY SON, IF YOU COULD ONLY SEE IT IS... 

 NOTHING
