I woke up one morning—or what passes for morning in this half-life—and realized my conscience had gone dry. Like a riverbed cracking under an indifferent sun. I reached inside for guilt… for shame… for that little whisper that used to say, “Stop. This is wrong.” And there was nothing. Only the echo of my own footsteps, walking over the graves of choices I swore I’d remember.
I have tasted hell, and it tastes like lukewarm coffee . Like a conversation you’ve had a thousand times with people who nod but never hear. Like success that leaves you hollow—a trophy that rusts in your hands the moment you touch it. a taste of hell declamation piece
But tomorrow never comes. Because in hell, there is only now . And now, I am thirsty. Not for water. For the tears I forgot how to cry. I woke up one morning—or what passes for
Now I wander. I see people laughing, and I don’t remember how to join them. I see lovers holding hands, and I feel only the geometry of their fingers—not the warmth. I see a child cry, and I calculate the inconvenience instead of reaching out. This is wrong
My hell began quietly. Not with a bang, but with a thirst .
So I took the deal. And the moment I did, I felt something leave me. Not with a scream—with a sigh . Like a tired guest finally leaving a party that went on too long.
