The nights are growing longer, my time to walk this planet we call earth is ticking slowly away fading from the light to the dark as the summer slowly fades to become the fall.
My thoughts echoed through my head as I sat a top the tall building over looking the city, the moon hanging in the night sky its dim light illuminating the sky around it, the stars twinkling brightly like diamonds on a piece of black cloth. The cool wind passed over my body and I took a deep breath in. I looked down to the streets below me, wondering how people could get by living life the way they do, the same routine day after day… what was so exciting about this? I couldn’t get a grasp on why these people were dying to live if there only living to die.
“Such interesting people. “
I said to my self as I continued to watch them, my curiosity of these people was growing stronger, I knew I was like them but yet different in so many ways, I wish I had some way to remember my past and what I was, or even how I fit into this world.
“What makes this life so interesting for you people? It’s the same thing day after day what is the point of this life? Who are you people trying to fool? Do you fools not see there is more to life then this?”
I grew tired of my thoughts and let my curiosity take over as I descended to the streets below. I made my way down the sidewalk, but as I passed an ally I heard a woman’s scream coming from the darkness. I made my way closer and hid in the shadows as I watched an older man hold a knife to her throat and demand her money.
“They want excitement in there lives but cry for help the second they get it… why?”
My curiosity of these people was growing even stronger still; I was hoping that if I watched them long enough I would find some clue to my past, there was only one thing I knew for sure about myself… I was not like them… there was something more to me, I could feel it inside me, it felt like there was a wild animal inside trying to get out.
