  • Isolamento The dark is a disturbing place friend, very few have traversed it, and even they have returned tormented and insane. The lack of light, oh the sweet lie of light, shows you the truth, and the truth destroys people. It is dark in your chamber, and you assume yourself to be all knowing on everything, but that is truly not the real dark. The dark is the desperation of isolation, making yourself an insignificant hermit in your own shadows. This is the scenario. You are fast in slumber in your bed, the room dark with the shadows of the moon. You hear a tapping, oh but it's only a tapping, what of it? The tapping continues. It doesn't stop. You stay awake for the duration of it, forcing yourself to end your primal instinct of curiosity, but knowledge is such a sweet lie disguised as a truth. You must know. You open the door to your room, expecting an empty hall full of shadows, the usual. But you find a grave sight, a discovery that will end you, the truth. The blank shadows of normality consume you. The real darkness consumes you, the truth. Death approached you, flipping his coin of judgment. He strikes you a deal, infinite knowledge of the universe, but at a price. You shall die, unable to share the truth. You see, death isn't just the god that dominions over death and everlasting darkness, but truth. The brutal truth of death and darkness, the eternal isolation. If you fear isolation, then you will never feel truth, you will never feel the tendrils of realization upon your mind. I stand here, not telling you to isolate yourself from the light, but to avoid isolation. Live the sweet lie of the light, question it to your hearts content, but the answers you collect are always false. Reality is indeed a false hope, I am afraid to say. So live, until the one brutal moment of departure. Death may be among you, but the truth and isolation shall follow, and you shall be enlightened. Live eternally in the hearts of others, and bathe eternally in the knowledge of the afterlife, the truth of isolation. Isolation is brutal, but honest. The word of Enlightenment is a swift act, the word of isolation is a brutal act. The word of death, is a true act. So leave this place, knowing yet more morals that are invaluable to your human mind, but are priceless to the enlightened mind you will come to accept in the future. Isolamento, the word of brutal truth, knowledge, and enlightenment. Let it burn within you, for some day you will be ready. Isolamento, relinquish the lies of the past, don your new future. Live another day in a new place, for here all you will see are lies, deceit, and betrayal. Such a word, is the only logic to live by. So don't go insane from the dark, embrace it, embrace curiously, embrace knowledge, embrace truth, embrace Isolamento, the only truth. The cycle shall be broke, goodbye friend, for now.
