Kindness to Death and Time.

A boy had walked in to a scene of murder. The murder was between himself and his soul. The boy was too young to be this man.

The soul was defending it's necessity in sustaining the man's faith in the world. The soul was shaped very meagerly, triangular at it's tail ends and was blowing like a baloon every minute it showed itself. A triangle, a square and a circle. It was encircled in a dodecahedron which was a transparent geometric shape. 

The mad man was well built, a muscular appearance. His head was ironically, funnily small. It was almost bean-like and was charred on the back sides.The man had no more conviction left in him. An ounce of a effort required a canyon of hope. A gram of happiness required an ocean of optimism. He had neither of the two. There was no abundance left in him. Nothing good perhaps. 

But then -

The axe had risen quickly, and it was sharp. The man was about to axe himself at which moment he saw the gleaming reflection of his own eyes in the side of the blade. The eye was golden and had been reduced to just a speck. The eyes had nothing left in them except the eye itself. It symbolized nothing but it's own existence. Why should there be a reason for something to exist? This he pondered and stopped just before the edge of the axe was a centimeter from his eye.

The soul now smiled in all it's geometric awkardness. In all its eccentric appearance, in all the soul's conviction was a tiny part of the man himself.

The boy triumphantly smiled and jumped ecstatically. The soul and his future self turned and piercingly stared at their past, almost as if they were transferring a necessary piece of wisdom to him. A piece of themselves in time, before time to someone that was and that should not will to be. 

The three now smiled exactly the same way and merged to one. 

The old man was happy that he was able to recall such a surreal dream from his depths. He opened his eyes in the ICU, just a blink. He closed it as soon as he saw his mother smiling, and passed away to another glorious world waiting for him. 

The young boy was on the ground, fallen from a height, a long pillar from which he had dived to the ground. He was too energetic to have this fall stop him. He went around and started to climb again, an arduous task in itself.

The soul was silent in both, confused in time. But then, it belonged to both and none. It just was. He just always was.
