In the middle of a starless night
I saw a sudden light.
Small,distant and dim
It brought a known feeling,that was oh so grim.
A burst of thoughts the same as always:
'Why care when life is just a momentary blaze?'
Harsh and bright
Life is just a blight.
We bring death and despair
No matter where
It always ends the same
'Is there someone to blame?'
The light left the sky with a flutter
And all I could do was mutter
'What kind of world is this,that even fake gods leave?'
Then as I was about to grieve
A blink revealed a new truth to me
this small,gold and feathery
light,that a minute ago left the sky.
It seemed so delicate and shy.
I couldn't resist but reach for it
"You're not a misfit"
Rang a voice so warm and calm.
I felt it in my palm.
It was like a glass ball. So easy to break
yet I was the one to shake.
"The world has no goal."
I felt it in my soul.
"You were given my sight
But I'll give you this single flight
To clear your mind."
For a moment I was blind
Then I realised it was the first moment I could to see
In this moment of glee
I was left alone,as my guide returned to his sky
And I no longer asked myself 'Why?'
The answer always seems so obvious once you know it.
But what matters is that now I'm fit
to finally leave this hole.
After all,I have my second goal.
