The Light
I come into a place
where everything is floating
It is a dark place for me,
nothing will pass into my liking
The houses are haunted
and thorns are everywhere
It is like a dangerous forest,
all paths lead to nowhere
At first I am scared
and I want to run away
Creatures have different languages,
I don't understand what they say
Everyone seems grinning
Like they want to tear me apart
What else would I think and do
If I feel they would break my heart?
But I have nowhere to go
so I decided to take the risks
I am scared but there's little courage
I am gripping with my fists
With the flicker of hope I wander
to study the mysterious place
Bit by bit I learn something,
enough to cope within each phase
Until I find little creatures
that thriving on a haunted tree
When I stop nearer to them,
they seem so scared, so afraid of me
I feel that sadness, I am bothered,
why they're afraid, I'm just harmless
My little hands could do nothing,
I just want to watch them exist
ButΒ Β suddenly one of them comes
closer and flies in front of me
I realize it want to be handled
so I open my hand and let it be
It settles down on my open hand
while I walk around, it is my light
And I'm thankful for the little lamp
now I have lessen my fright
A little light that gives me hope
it makes me strong and lessens my load
That tomorrow I can find the way
to get out of this darkest road...
Sometimes answers come in unexpected forms...
