Eyes: You see everything, and understand what must be done in order to forgo suffering, noticing the silence of others and people thought to be insignificant in the grander schemes. Nothing can escape your watchful eye. A powerful thing to be indeed, but omniscient does not mean omnipotent. Cassandra too saw a bloody future that her people refused to acknowledge, saw the red string of fate that tied her painful future with her inevitable death, but lacked the power to stop the burning fires of Troy. You are burdened with a great gift. Do not avert your gaze, do not look back, do not close your eyes. See it all, be the witness. Even if that’s all you can do.

When the end of the world comes and you watch the seconds tick down, the last thought you will ever have flashes through your head, gone so fast you barely comprehend it, what was it again?

Is this my fault? Born into a life of guilt, made to think you were always an issue, never allowed to think for yourself as who could be so selfish as to have their own thoughts. you hope that it will be quick, you hope that you didn't bring this upon the world by daring to be your own person. you had just begun to open your wings when the world crashed down on you, life came to take you. did you deserve to live in pain? or did you simply allow yourself to be convinced it was the only option? if you chose to keep going, could you change the future that you once believed was set in stone, a road of pain changed into a road of opportunities.

frustration: In longing, you feel frustration. You feel that you've almost reached your desire one too many times and you don't understand why you keep getting denied. You feel the universe is taunting you, playing just beyond your reach and leaving you on the brink of breaking every time it dances away. When you let yourself feel your yearning, you bury your face in your hands and turn to look at the sky, not expecting an answer, but pleading for relief. There's a burn in your heart that you just can't explain in words but it's deep, you can feel it in your throat and just under your chest. You take a deep breath and exhale heavily. It settles you enough to continue on as you were. You see others living your desire and you don't feel jealous per se, but the burn raises in intensity and you just wish... something. You want change from your current situation, at this point, you don't really care what it is, just... something. Have courage my dear, you can brave the fires of this world if you so wish.
