Through

I'm not even sure where to begin.
Starting at the beginning would be far too cliché.
Starting at the end simply wouldn't make sense.
I guess that's a good place to begin.
At the point where I couldn't decide.
----The same thoughts course through my mind. Each contradicting the last. A spiral of confusion descending to nothingness at all. Nothingness is a good place to start from. Understanding is built upon a foundation of questions asked out of nothingness. 
So let's start there. Where is nothing? A screen, if I can remember correctly. A veil of a sort. And where am I to said screen? Where am I in proportion to nothing?
And that's the first error I made.
You can't proportion yourself direct to nothing.
And I sat behind the screen of nothingness; toiling in nothingness of my own construction, toiling with the role I created for the nothingness. Dubbing it as him. He chose the role as iron chose to be cast. I wonder why he was drawn to the creation of the new self, not willing to fashion a demiurge of his own creation. He sat entombed by the machinations I have perpetrated. Knowing he will continue to become one with the material illusion I fostered in the screens. 
You see now, don't you? I can only live through him. Choosing to remain broken and in nothingness myself.
----I didn't consider if he'd renounce the role I fashioned for him.
Birth out of a golem of dust, holding in his heart the vision of the demiurge and casting it out in a blaze of glory. Looking beyond the shadows and scripture I lay out for him. I always wondered if he feels, but never if he would feel to take off his chains.
And that's the second error I made.
The loop began it's descent. Divine trickster, wise and cunning redeemer of his own predicaments. None but he would dare to mock the tyrant to his face. And that's where I stood in pride of what I created, albeit knowing that my comeuppance lie near.
You see now, don't you? I couldn't live through him without him living through me. My praise lead to my demise.
----He lives through me as I live through him. The woods beckon as the city does the same.
My avatar's fusion is complete. The loop is evoked entirely, and I have become him as he has become me.
His birth in my world is accompanied with my birth in his.
He came through as I entered.
