a old prequel story wrote of tale of bunny love


The world is black.... I remain alone,

Adrifting through the blackness....

There is no on for me, I am alone.........

There are a few blipsof light...brief online

Friends and lovers...but everything is dark.....

I am to wander alone...empty...living in blackness.....

I remain alone, drifting, wandering.....

There is no light in my world....few brief flashes of light

And they're gone.....I walk on eternally in darkness.....

Never to really know light, love, friendship......

I cry out, curse.. but there is no on to respond, to give comfort....

I remain alone, lost in darkness....

Sometimes knowing brief flashes of light...sometimes shining myself....

But I continue to be wandering in the darkness...not being able to cry....

Drwoning, drowning in a sea of sorrow...

Wanting to live, but why should I? Will I ever make a difference in life?

Does anyone really care?......... I drift on in blackness....

Never knowing of anything save my emptiness and sorrow and depression......

Good bye cruel world......

David sighs as he puts down the pen...and reflects....he soon starts to walk along the trail near the river.....

He walks, thinking of his life and his so-called accomplishments...."Sigh, why must I be like this?" he thinks to himself.

"Why can't I find anyone? I'm so alone and miserable...sure I've had one night stands but I need something more...I need a purpose...Do I really want to pursue a career as a journalist?"

He walks on...moving towards the river bank. He then sits down on a rock and stares in the moving waters....looking at the moonlight dance back and forth in the waves...

"hmmm...I really haven't done much...keep being a student...seeming to have to retake courses again and again just to have them stick...plus I don't really have any experience and will probably never get any....," Dave sighs as he continues his thoughts....

"Would I really make a difference in this life?...Can I be more than I am..?"

"Sigh there is more to live than writing...I just can't seem to find someone...what is it with me? I'm fairly attractive...smart...friendly...etc, yet I just can't seem to attract anyone...perhaps I have no purpose in this life...why should I continue..?"

Dave looks back out over the waters....wondering if he should go through with it or not..He begins to cry out his frustrations and feelings of depression..... "Sigh...I just don't know what to do...I don't have a job...can't seem to find one...living on financial aid...and parents.....I'm losing myself..." Dave thinks, continuing to stare at nothing but the waters.....

Dave soon hears other people approaching from behind him....he sees a cat and dog running along the path...he continues to cry...knowing they won't care and stop...."Know one knows me...I have only made online friends.... Which is good...they have helped me out a bit....but I need someone who's actually here to help me...I don't know what I need...Should I or shouldn't I? Can you give me a sign, great being?..." Dave thinks and leans back against the tree continuing to cry...hearing the runners approach closer....

To his surprise, he hears them stopping and feels their eyes looking at him...He quickly glances to check them out, then turns away and ignore them......

"That's pretty much it...There's more but you don't need to hear that.." Dave sighs as he finished telling Ben and Mindy his tale of why he was thinking of committing suicide...

"Man...that's pretty deep," Ben said.

"Don't worry...we can try and help you out...." Mindy says.

"Thanks guys...just having you stopped and taking me in, shows me that the world isn't what we make it out to be..." Dave said.

"Feh. Wouldn't want to lose someone just cause they're depressed," Ben says.

"Well...now you know what I was going through when you found me," Dave says laying back on the couch, looking at Ben and Mindy.

"Hmm...have you ever had counseling?" Mindy asks.

"No...I'm usually able to pull myself out of them, but this one really lasted a long time...." Dave replied.

"huh...not many people can pull themselves out of it so easily...shows that you have a strong will.." Ben said.

"Really? I haven't thought of it like that....I keep forgetting that there are others who had gone through the same thing I have..." Dave mused.

"Yeah....unfortunately people around them didn't know what signs to look for. We do, since we're trained counselors..." said Mindy.

"Do you guys treat people like me all the time?" Dave asked.

"Yes, we do. Although they're mostly teenagers, but it's not uncommon for adults to suffer from depression as well," remarked Ben.

"One of my online friends said that he had gone through my path before and was able to beat it...he says that I should have think positive and remember that we are born into the world and anything can be ours..." Dave murmured.

"That's very good and sound advice your friend gave you," Mindy purred.
