Chapter #10 : Harmless

Just finished my second exam paper. Can't say it was extremely easy but.... let's say I had a strong feeling of getting a very good grade. All was well and good, even after the exam and all the way till I reached home. Then emptiness fell through.

Ever had the feeling of void?
A feeling of wanting to do something to fill that gap inside,
yet unmotivated to do anything at all?

Maybe it's the stressed release after completing my 2 papers,
maybe it's because the next paper is days ahead,
and maybe I really needed to let go and rest...

but I just can't. No matter what I do, or what I DON'T do,
the sense of uneasiness is still there.

Have I lost my fangs?
Have I lost my claws?
Have I lost the will to strive;
the will to live in the world of prowess?
Have I become contend with being.... common?

.... Is it because of that sudden realization that...
Slowly, but surely....I'm losing you?

I'm lost.... yet I must move on.

Hopefully by dawn,
my claws will shine once more,
with a heart shooting for the moon;
Never reachable, yet never ceasing to try. 

Save me.
