Title: I Found the Child -poem *Possible Trigger Warning*
Post by: Atlas on December 07, 2017, 11:39:04 PM
Cast into shadow
by the glaring of the limelight.
Burnt by the sun, she fell
her feathers on fire.

Hidden in darkness,
I found the Child.
Crouched and crying,
I found the Child.

Fallen from grace,
a miserable thing.
An inhuman monstrosity,
A horrid little tragedy.

Trapped and destitute,
I found the Child.
Crouched and dieing,
I found the Child.

How long it's been since
she's gone unseen.
It's been too long
since I've looked for me.

In the silence,
I found the Child.
Quieted,
I found the Child.
