Prosaic

I am Lucas, the light. But all I see is darkness. When I opened my eyes there was only a pool of blood and i was standing at middle of it. Cries of agony surrounding me, shadows lurking in the dark, but I could see no one.
I tried to run but my legs are numb to the point to have no feeling as if they were nailed for never to be moved. There's a reflection in the pool that don't belong to me, it's drowning waiting for me to pull him out . But I am to scared to reach my hand out, I don't want to get blood on it.

But will he die if I dont put myself out for him?
