I recall my life every day. I recall my sins and my acts of purity. I remind myself I was never a religious man. I remind myself that I have been dead for half of forever. I remind myself of nothing. I move along to the next minute. Next day. Next year. The earth doesnt change so much anymore. It doesnt change so quickly. With humans, the earth had to keep changing. But you can only replace a dying thing so many times before someone notices. There havent been humans for years. Maybe a decade. Maybe more. I find myself loving their absence. The absence of humanity is the absence of violence. I love this peace. But then I remember my bones. My mind and my memories. I remember Im human. I am the thing I detest. The creature that haunts my steps. Its my shadow I see watching me. Its my reflection in the water. I keep remembering. I live in fear. But still, I walk on.
