A new human has started their journey;
Her joyful surroundings being the key
To a childhood full of love and smiles
Made her want to adventure several miles.

"I want to adventure endlessly!
I want to be grown! I want to go freely!"
The child wholeheartedly prayed to the heavens.
Her ambitious letter was then sent by ravens.

The gods granted the ultimate wish,
And the change was fast and swish.
Discovered multiple advantages,
Yet her heart was filled with anxiousness.

Days passed by a blink of the eye;
Everything in the world has a price.
They crushed her dream, not less a dime,
Using the expensive life and time.

The obstacles of hell had started;
Seven darts of sins hit the target,
Turning the once innocent
To a hungry and selfish serpent.

Loneliness and pain became numbness.
Now, I have forgotten some instances,
Like to mourn my dead previous self,
And how to wish earnestly to an elf.

And so, the once child faded into the mist;
Affection and elation ceased to exist.
No more wishes, no more dreams to find,
Only silence and the echoes left behind.
