Diana you have intrigued me:
Darkness was all around me as I stepped forward into an unknown path.
My shadow followed my footsteps with the moon on my back and the irie feeling that I was not alone in this abandoned city.
The moon was my companion and it’s glow my salvation.
My imagination was working fast into a chaotic exchange with dark toughts of being followed.
Why was I dropped here?
Who did this to me?
All I remember is the light into the portal and a hand pushing me through.
My heart is beating at a rate of suffocation, yet, I continue forward to wherever I am directed and know that the spirit in me will keep me safe into the unknown…
And it’s off to a terrific start with a beautifully written piece. Can’t wait to read the others! 🙂

You too, have a great rest of the week. So happy to see so many pouring in. This is a wonderful idea of yours, Diana. I have been so strapped for time and I haven’t been able to sit and write. But, I can still read! Thanks to you, my dear.
