Hallelujah


I woke up here, not knowing where I was. At first, I couldn’t see anything. I felt without escape, almost like I couldn't breathe. I woke up and it was all dark. I couldn’t see anything. I thought my eyes would adjust but I waited and waited and nothing. I didn't know where I was or how to get out. I was alone, and it felt like a strange and familiar feeling.
I set on the floor. Or at least I thought it was the floor, but I couldn't be sure because everything was too dark, it almost made me doubt of my own hands and legs.
I just sit there, with my hands around my head. At first I thought I would freak out. You see at first I really thought that. But then, I got used to that awful feeling. I got used to it and all of a sudden, I was so alone I... simply wasn't.
I knew there was something else there, with me. 
'Hello?' 
Nobody answered, just the sound of my own voice.
But I knew it, I simply knew it.
'HELLO?'  I asked again, but this time with a little more strength.
I was sure, someone was there.
And I don't know how, but I simply knew. 
I had no doubt.
'I know you are there! I can't see you, but… but I can feel you and I'm sure you are there! Show yourself!'




The room gave me back my own voice. A few seconds went by, and nothing. 
'I know you are there, so don't hide. I'm sure of it, there's no way you can make me doubt it. I may not know a lot of things, but this... this I feel it, and the moment I start doubting my own feelings well... I wouldn't doubt them.'
No one answered, but I kept talking. I knew I didn't had to, but I felt like I could, I could really talk with answer or not.
'How long have you been here? Where am I?' 
My voice sounded louder with every word.
'Maybe that's not the right question... If there is such thing... Maybe, Maybe I should ask myself why am I here...Why am I here? How did I get here?' 
As soon as those words came out of my heart, something changed.
My eyes changed. Everything was dark, but it was a different dark, a dark I could see trough.
'Oh my... Who are you? Where are you? Where have you been?' 




'You are... Nice to meet you'
My heart started pumping so hard I could hear it.
Pum, pum, pum.
And with every one of those "pums" my darkness changed. 
And I saw the floor, and I saw everything.




'Maybe I have been here before, I know this room; I have walked this floor, I used to live alone before I knew you...'
I won't anymore.
And then I saw. I saw the one I was talking to, I saw with my heart.
And I understood


I've seen your flag on the marble arch, love is not a victory march, it's a cold and it’s a broken Hallelujah ..
