Day 323: Cast Away

Isolation is the key to people who had failed to socialize then. The weird kid, the odd one or the special case. there is always a cast away as one will try to avoid the norms and walks of life. But sometimes drifting away from people, drifting away from everything that the world once offered you, is not a bad thing as it leads to things that you never knew you'd love.

Escaping the comfort zone is a dare not everyone did in their lifetime. Some stayed there and never saw the things that life offered them. Those people merely exist and didn't live at all. Comfortable in the shell they grew into, they never tried to find something new. Settling for mediocrity as they regret as they grow old and weakly. 

That is why I am grateful for leaving the comfort zone where I was safe before. Safe in the clutches of the world I lived in and safe as everything felt familiar. Because if I hadn't then I wouldn't have met you. 

In the world where I came in midst of chaos, puzzled still as the people were different and along the debris and scattered remains, there was maiden lurking in the shadow. Terrified of what she is, moons have passed that I did not make a single move. But I get to know her and fell in love more when she stood in stage. Never have I cared about anyone in that night as every star in the sky aligned to to light her beauty alone. I came in a world where disaster and agony is anticipated but seeing her was a proof that even in times of war, there is a little spark of sunshine that becomes your light when you notice long enough.

Ever since then I have wished to be inside the clutches of your embrace as every night you invade my dreams and make me sleep. If being cast away means being with you then it is a punishment I would willingly offer. You have consumed my waking days as well as my sleepless nights and the only thing left is you sitting beside me.

Casting away from the world I knew terrified me but with her, the trouble and fear does not seem troubling or terrifying. Maybe being away for once was the best decision ever made.
