okay, so this is a short story I wrote the other day in my own language but I decited to translate it and I'm VERY pleased with the result. So anyway, hope you like it
The path of lost souls
Cold and shrill shimmers the light through the leaves. The mist hangs low over the ground in a deadly silence.
Only the trees can still remember the beauty that once existed.
But then she came?
The shadow that slips past the branches
A crystal clear figure dressed in white. Decorated with bracelets formed out of her tears that enchain her to the earth.
Her pale skin and golden locks lit up brightly in a cold silver glow, whenever she reaches out with her hand to touch heaven. But she can?t escape, she doesn?t dare to escape.
Captured in her chains of sorrow, nobody can free her. She can?t die, she?s already dead. She can?t run, she?s captured in the lonely forests boundaries. And so she roams over the path as snowflakes whirl down on her. Placing her soft bare feet further, one step at a time. And the burden becomes heavy. The cold embraces her and the wind plays with her locks. While the melting snow slowly soaks her satin gown. But she wont quit, she continues her way. What pushes her on, even she does not know. But she doesn?t has a choice.
And so she goes on, till the night whispers to her that It?s time to enter her dreams. And so she hides herself under a white tree. Hiding from the relieving moonlight that beams through the leafage. Till the cold morning wakes her up, and the snow reminds her that this will go on forever.
Because there is no escape. Running is impossible. Because this is where haunted souls of the lost and hurt linger in eternal grief.
On the path of lost souls?
