The Lost Boy

by Dark Angel - Pisces

Deep into the forest
The lost boy quietly crawls
Soakened by the foggy mist
Dampened from the soft touch of evening dewdrops.

Crawling toward an unknown destination
To help or shelter perhaps
Thoughts drowning in the pouring rain,
Heart racing with the rolling thunder,
Lungs ceasing with every lightening snap.

Crying tears of wooden darkness
Home seeming so faded and forgotten
The home full of warmth
The home full of life
The home full of light,
The home-
Just to be home.
