The Fall [ENG]

The final chapter of The Story Whisperers. JP can still dream, but only as a witness—unable to walk, touch, or speak. Each morning, the details fade faster, and in waking life his words stall and fracture. What remains is not silence, but distance: imagination withdrawn, thoughts unfinished, and a story that can no longer be completed.

I try to speak, the air goes thin, The story starts— won’t let me in. I wake up knowing I was there, But not what held me, not where. The colors drain before they land, The edges blur inside my hands. I write it down, then cross it out, The point arrives without the route. I know it mattered— just not how, The shape is gone, I have it now. I still remember that I dreamed, Not what it was, not what it meant. The fire’s gone, but not the scar, I’m left with where the endings are. I sit with words that won’t align, Half a thought, then empty lines. Every sentence folds too soon, Like reaching for a vanished room. I know there’s more... I almost... I try to finish what I... I try to... I...
