these times of woe afford no time to woo

i woke up unsure if i had slept at all and looked over at the window where, beyond the curtains lay lush green and as far as I was concerned, a black hole. Though night had fallen, I saw it clear as day; the spirit, a subtle ball of faint white glow flew towards my heart and entered me. I closed my eyes in a combination of disbelief and ecstasy and felt my body vibrate uncontrollably for a few seconds. The bodily quake left me paralyzed and confused as I began to feel my limbs return to pink and eventually to blood-red circulation. I lay astounded and tried to make sense of it all, heart pounding up to the ceiling and back into my chest.
