Midnght Story

Here was a writing I was spontaniously inspired to write:

In the dark I speak with silence. I don't know why but I do. No one can see me but there is something about the blackness that keeps me to a minimal roar. The only thing that is visible in lightless areas is sound. Sounds are either soothing or frightning in those areas of life. I try to make mine as soothing as can be for those who are in the dark because soothing sounds are what attract people and animals alike. Some things that are hideous emit the soothing and peacful sonic waves to attract people. Whenever the light is shone on the them they are exposed for what they really are dispite what they sound like. Some people stay by these soothing and comforting sounds all their lives and never shine a light on them. Some people go where there are hideous sounds to shine lights to see if what is emmiting that sound is as horrifing as the sound itself. Only the bravist and boldest explore these things so that they can warn or inform others that they pass of their findings. Some people who stay by the truly consistantly soft yet soothing sounds stay to try and imitate these sounds. They imitate because they see what is the orgin of this sound and how beautiful it really is when the light is shone on it and they want to be just like this. There are a small minority who side with the truly hideous in order to scare and strike fear into passerby. There are a small minority of people who when they stop by sounds they are given a new light. When they shine this new light they see things differently as to when they would shine their orignial light that they were given. There was a fault with the original light because sometimes it would shine on things and give it a distorted look. No one knew that it gave objects distorted looks untill they recived this new light because if you see something the same way over and over with the same light then you begin to think that it actually looks like that but what you see is not always nessicarily what is there. See when you stopped by what was making this sound there would be an offer of a new light and you could decline or accept. There were other stops that offered new lights too but they would only distort things more. I have been witness to how this place works and how things go about for 17 years. I have found a spot of orgin of how I got in this place and it is the same place that I recived my new light. People who find their true spot of orgin by shining their light on things frequently and listening as closly as they can to distict sounds will find the new light that gives clear view on everything. Sometimes it may take a little bit for things to foucus but with patients it will all come into clarity. I have this light and I flash it on all that makes sound without predudice as to what type of sound. I may have shone my light on you. You may have shone your light on me. I watch so many people refuse to use their light and as I shine my light on them I get no reaction. They move around this darkness aimlessly and oblivious to the fact that they have a light. I have told you all this as my first words because as I said I remain silent. This is my first speech and I give it to this place know as the world. I say as loudly as I can, use your light because without it you will remain in darkness forever. If you want a light with clarity I will point it out to you for I try my best to emit soothing sounds so I can inform people of my findings. Do not be another person who goes around aimlessly and pointlessly because then you just become another obstacle to get around in the dark.
