Well, I like it too, and I'm glad you posted it! :D

"I wish that I could soar through the misery into the light." I adore this opening line--it's so angsty and powerful. :)

Good point. "Hope is a horrible thing and must be destroyed at all costs." No, I'm not a pessimist:)
lOl.
I like the different writing style you used, maybe because it's a favorite of mine. Anyway, it added oomph:]
Nicely done.
Write oN!
