Literature Text

Off so distant lies three light houses
Guiding the lost and the broken.
Not near water, but in a lonely desert
One to misguide deeper into darkness, one to lead down a path of loneliness, the last to happiness, love, and light.

There once was a small child
All alone in this dark, desolate desert
Simultaneously searching for her secret light house
Trying to cope with the pain in her soul

Never knowing where to go, where to turn.
Wandering the dark alone.
The pain and sorrow welling up inside, tears steam.
I watch her like an angel, a ghost, and can’t do a single thing.

The fog sets in, and the child loses her light she was searching for.
I watch her break down, her aggravation overwhelming.
Our bleeding hearts linked as one, her pain starts to show through the disguise,
But she’s brave enough to go on.

In the cold depths of space, she stands helpless.
Realizing her innocence is lost, and there is no return.
The pain blares in my chest as we stare down at our blood-stained hands around our hearts
Why is there so much blood…? I ask myself.

Memories fill her head.
The trust and love we once had, now completely obliterated.
The fog in the way lifts, finally we see clearly.
The spinning light in the distance screams follow me!

Then I finally realize… I am this child.
