I dreamed of color last night.

Then I woke up and was consumed in darkness. I am consumed in darkness. I see nothing. The beauty of color is now only a reality in my dreams.

If only I could truly look into the eyes of another person once more.

If only I could see the beauty found within every creature once more. The details and designs found within every part of them. If only I could see that again.

If only Erik didn't have telekinesis. Would Ruth be alive if he was a normal creature?

If only I knew how to control the beast within me. Would Chris be alive if I wasn't a monster?

If only...

"Rise and shine!" the light from outside my room assaulted my fragile eyes, "I've got a couple people for you to meet, my sweet princess," Violet's annoying, sing song voice blared into my ears.

"How many? I am too tired to focus my energy on trying to figure out who all decided to come and see me."

"Just a few of the children."
