"I start to hyperventilate and pull my hand away, taking a step back. I catch my reflection in the silver mirror. My face is tanned with dirt, clean streaks running down my cheeks from the path of my tears. My button nose is red from the frosty coastal air. My thin lips chapped and cracked from dehydration. I have been beaten and worn down by life, continuously tested. My energy sucked from my body, leaving me questioning my will to live. I’m angry, furious with what life has dealt me. I want to give up, it would be so easy.
But maybe I don’t want easy.
I want to live and if that means taking the wrath of life’s heat, I will burn in her flames. I square my shoulders and puff out my pale chest, inhaling the salty cold air deep within my lungs, freezing my core.
Whatever happens walking through this Veil now, I know for certain, it will not be my death. I reach out my mud stained fingers and touch the Veil."
