Something inhibiting. Something that drags the soul down, down, down, with no inclination of ever granting release. You wonder what it would be like to smile more. To feel light and free, weighed down by nothing. You're frightened by this thought, perhaps because this plague is all you've really ever known. To experience something different would leave you in no man's land. You don't know how to function without the comfort of your painfully dark and isolating cloak keeping you back, when all you've ever wanted was to step out into the warmth of the sun.
