Craving for a cave

I would like to find a cave that I could crawl into. I would need someone’s help to shut it for me. I wouldn’t want anything to carry with me. I’m not that hungry. I have had enough food to sustain the rest of my life. I’m not thirsty either. I have had enough water to cleanse my body. I wouldn’t want to waste a drop anymore. Clothes won’t be necessary either. This one I’m wearing now won’t need a change. I don’t need something to read. The things I have read, I haven’t processed them yet. I’m sure it’s going to take me more than this lifetime to do so. I don’t need the light. I have learned to embrace the darkness and my vision has adjusted to it. I don’t think I would have the need to see anything. Once I climb in and lie down on a comfortable ground, I’m going to fall asleep. I would day dream till I pass out. Then once I fall asleep, I hope to dream an endless dream. I have left everything outside. All the things that owned me lies in my house. I’m not in need of them anymore. There’s nothing that’s mine that I have left out. Except for my heart. I have left it for you. It is yours to take or leave. I can’t force you take it. But you may find it useful in your darkest hours. It has survived the worst till now. I know your heart to be stronger than mine. Much more warmer than mine. But if at all you find yourself on a long cold day, alone in your bed and in need of warmth but not a whole human, you can pick my heart out and hold it close. I swear it’ll grow warmer with your touch and provide you the comfort to get you through the night. It’ll keep beating for you till the end of times. And if at all the end of times arrive, and you find yourself alone in the world with nothing to eat, you can eat my heart too. I hope it gets you through few more days, anything to keep this humanity alive. But do not worry about me. I’m safe here in this cave, far away from this treacherous life, dreaming about you.
