The darkness descended on the girl until she could no longer see the brightness, it grew and grew unil it ripped at her skin and pulled her arms this way and that way until she screamed no more. The scream was so loud that it shattered panes of glass, the fall of shards breaking could be heard everywhere, then one day it stopped. And she trod over the broken glass and her feet bled but she didn't care for they were only feet and blood is only blood. And she saw, she saw the great wide chasm and when she returned she returned with a light. The light within her grew and grew until it banished the dark and she knew and whenever the darkness came and whispered it's long tendrils and tried to touch her skin and grab her she banished it with one foul swoop of her arm and said begone! because you do not belong here with her and the light. And the darkness recoiled from hence it came to fester and to seethe.
And she shone, she shone her light on to life and through life and wherever it shone beauty grew and bloomed into a prettly little plum flower and a fine young handsome butterfly, blue, so serene and shining brilliantly, so tender and sweet, blossoming in the sunlight and shimmering in the moonlight. And the girls heart filled with love and cried tears of joy and she then turned to her secret love and kissed the darkness and said look at this my love, my guiding light and and they smiled down upon them beaming like a ray of sunshine on the beginning of a new day!And under her breathe she thanked the darkness for this.
One day, finally she became light herself and she returned to the space and the stars.
She sped on towards the stars travelling faster than the speed of light passed galaxies and headed into the dark space, to where? Who knows? The divine, God?

I would thank you but it wont let me.
@Caroline,
Ya know, I think it's finished, maybe a bit of shuffling the words around but I think it's done.

Ya know I could just keep adding and adding to it, getting bigger and bigger, I mean it never stops. I'm thinking of inserting a garden somewhere in the middle where things to grow, (obviously), and describing all the pretty things that live there. I mean I could go and on and on forever.
@Caroline,
Blood will have blood they say, yes I to liked the images it gave me ,we all need the darkness to appreciate the lighter times. Thanks Chas.xris
@Caroline,
You are welcome my dear and thank you. Your words inspire me as you know they always do. A full moon and the bright stars are out tonight, hounds howling I hear? A war cry? Quick they are coming, run!
@Caroline,
They can smell the blood, sorry I just thought I add that one in there. And that really is all folks!
@Caroline,
Hey Catch, can I ask you a faour please. Would you mind shuffling this story about a bit please, like put the garden in there somewhere because I dont know where to put it and I know you been practising with Salima in chopping and changing prose and poetry and I see you have built some skill from it so I'd appreciate it.
Thanks.
@Caroline,
That's a nice challenge, Caroline. I will copy the text and see what I can do. But I know it will be very little. I even think any change will spoil the whole thing considerably. But because you ask I will try. Mind it could take some time.
@Caroline,
Take all the time you like Catchabula I know you can do it because you worked well with Salima producing good results. So thanks yeah, take all the time you like because I'm sure it'll be worth the wait, can't wait to see how it turns out now.
Thanks.
@Caroline,
Hm what do you think, Caroline. How did it turn out? ;-)
@Caroline,
I don't like the first line but I guess it's probably close to the truth too but there are women too Catch, like my mother and other girls how would you describe that.
I got to go to bed will read it all later, look forward to it, thank you Philippe.
Yeah I like it so far, thank you so much. Good night, sleep tight, don't let the bed bugs bite. Cheers!
