Drowning in Her Darkness
“Just do not go out any further, please. Don’t risk your life when you are just getting to live it.”
“Sapphire, before you go, earlier you said ‘drown’, what does this word mean?”
“To drown is to be submerged in water until you breath it in and die or almost die. It’s also used to described being suffocated by something, usually unpleasant.”
“Sapphire, was I drowning in the darkness till you came?”
“Yes, Evangeline. I believe you were drowning in your own darkness, even though you did not know it yet.” Sapphire’s voice was now full of sadness again. “I must sleep now. Please consider hiding and sleeping as well, we will both need our strength for the journey ahead.”
