"Hello dearest reader, this one is a lengthy read and I hope you enjoy reading it just as much as I enjoyed writing it"˚ ❀..༊.
Eyes flutter open
After resting through the night
Under a tree
On the mossy soft ground
She found it with much glee
But she is alone you see
She's been alone for a while
And often she thinks maybe
It was meant to be this way
She is but a child.
Birds have their pairs,
And bears and dears,
All have a family
All have someone who cares.
She walked through this forest
All day and night
She is sometimes distracted
by its blinding beauty and light
Sometimes she believes herself ok,
With it just being her
With her own presence
And every so often
She is passed by lovers bliss
And is reminded
on the existence such as this,
of her being alone
Only her footsteps are left in stone.
One evening while lying alone,
In a small nook surrounded by trees
She had made her home
A faun came up or just appeared
Exceptionally beautiful
So quiet to approach
In awe of her beauty
She stepped so gently
as if she were walking on air
Then, she rubbed her face against mine
And I was instantly comforted
So much so I began to cry
And we stayed there
Just the two of us
And was lonely no more.
And as the days went by
They became closer and friends
Ran through fields
Through the river and the pines
The girl knew,
" If I look behind, her hoof prints would be next to mine"
She could rest easy at night
For she was no longer alone
She was now warm at night
She suffered no longer in the cold
Then her eyes opened
She wasn't there
She thought it a dream
The girl searched and searched
running through the trees
Panting, crying, begging it to be real,
"This can't be happening to me"
Tears stain her face
She gives up her search
But at last, she sees
A sigh of relief escaped her lips
"I'm so happy I wasn't dreaming about this"
But you weren't alone at a closer look
You laid at the lap of some man holding a book
She felt my heart stop
For a moment she couldn't breathe
She was her only comfort
And that man is a thief
How could you do this
Her only friend, her companion
The one that helped her grow.
But she quickly found peace with herself
And walk away without you having to know
The girl cried many nights
Her face wet with tears
and her throat, sore
From screaming out her pain
She was alone again
just like before.
