Dear Child:
I see you in the corner there
cowering crouching crying
your head resting on the
arms that wrap around
your knees.
I feel you in the cage where
a shame and fear prison
suffocates breath and
silences laughter
from you.
I call to your soul and wake
that light eternal, one
invincible to cruelty
and untouchable
by darkness.
Your soul then rises from the
depths of abyss and fills
each pore of
loneliness
with love.
Rise, Child of Light.
