______ P.O.V
Jareth I didn't know what to think of him. I should be waiting for Kyle to get home but I don't need the pain of my father and Sam then I started to sing a song that calmed me when my father used to physically abuse me
"Cast away your worries, My dear."
my eyes started to water as it was the song my brother used to sing and told her that her mother used to sing it to him.
"For tomorrow comes a new day"
this song gave me the courage to keep going and the strength to get up when she was hurt the most.it made her feel like her mother was there watching over me.
"Hold to me, you've nothing to fear"
I always pushed on no matter how bad it got. And it was all because of the two that I love more than myself.
"For your dreams aren't far away"
I've always dreamed big even though in my head I always knew It'd never happen. Jareth and I started to dance around the room we were in.
"as you lay your head and you rest, May your dreams take over my love"
even though it was hard I did dream I did have my adventure
"Listen close my son of the west"
My brother had always called me princess in the song. But I always liked the original. But My Brother being like the only father that I see in my eyes and as he was he was the only one that cared for me.
"For your destiny lies above"
I guess my brother thought I was meant to for great things, I would meet the gods one day and make the world see who I really was.
"Though the world is cruel"
I started to cry I was remembering my high school years and my father's words make me feel completely and utterly alone
"there is a light that still shines in the darkest days of our lives"
I was alone up until her brother, Kyle. Came to help her and clean her he always told her that what doesn't kill her will make her stronger. and stronger it did make her.
"When all hope seems lost"
when Kyle wasn't there Father got worse at times I was beaten so bad that he had no choice but to take me to the hospital. I at times thought it was the end for me
"and you cant find your way"
I had always thought of those time like if I was in a ditch and couldn't get out by myself. trying to find a way and coming up empty and almost giving up.
"Think of me as you look to the sky"
And when whenever I looked up There he was a smile on his face and reaching down to pick me up so he told me "when you look at the sky think of me. I'll be there And here." as he poked the space on my chest where my heart was.
"child mine your future is bright"
Kyle was more a father to me than my father is so he took me in and it was good he treated me well but he couldn't have me with him forever my Birth father would think something is up
"For your father's blood's in your veins "
and that is why him being MIA hit me so hard he was my father every kid would get that way when their father figure goes missing or is reported dead.
"In dark times I pray you will fight"
Kyle was a religious man like mom was and he either called me princess or His Angel so, I was happy to have him around as a brother and a father.
"For the world will soon know your name."
And I hope it does because then I will live a life not of fear or hate but one of love and happiness. Because her father Luther his name will be tarnished and he will then feel what he has done to me!
