My first ever attempt at trying to write something worthwhile.
I was in a dream, slowly floating towards nowhere in a surreal world. As I pondered on my purpose of being there, I saw him at a distance staring at the vast expanse of sky above, his face full of eagerness. His eyes glowed with a strange mix of excitement and fear. Curiosity flooded my mind about what kind of pleasures and perils were expected from the sky. I stayed at a safe distance from him, out of fear of distracting him from his reverie. Suddenly I felt a drop trickle down my face. I touched it, and saw a smear of red on my tiny finger. A rain of blood. I slowly turned to look at him licking at the drops of red liquid on his palms. A cloud of fear and disgust consumed me like a tornado. Then it dawned upon me, the reasons for his initial emotions. The excitement at performing an act of sin and the fear of facing the punishment later.
