Poem: Child Of Caera

A Child's Fate

From the depths of the sea

Was a child, filled with curiosity

Dreaming about the world above, he always wondered

When he would see the girl of light

 

He sought the light with an outstretched hand

As he reached of age

He wished to achieve his dream

To see her world with his own eyes

 

Join in his dream, in his song of hope and love

Where the sun, illuminated the sky

Pray that the light may sway, sway towards his way

For the child's own fate

 

From the depths of the sea

Was a child, now at the surface of the light

Regardless of the price, he sacrificed 

The gift of voice

 

She, who was nearly devoured by the sea

Unbeknownst to her

She brought her savior in, to where she lived

Gave his name, where they lived side by side

 

Join in their tale, in her time, of friendship and trust

Where the sun shone upon the sea

Vow to take the light, to stay by her side

For the child's own fate

 

May his chosen path lead him with kindness

Yet, he knows two fates await him, be it joy or regret

Near the end, he will find his courage, yet meet his weakness

For the light in his heart had fallen for another

 

Under the moonlight

With the gleaming knife

He stares upon his beloved

With the words of his brothers in mind

He raised it up high, only to hesitate at the sight

 

Intertwined with another, she peacefully sleeps

A gentle smile adorning her face

With his resolve, he threw the shard back to the sea

Looking towards the starry sky with content 

 

At the first ribbon of sunrise

He looks upon the ocean from whence he came 

With a last glance at his reflection

He closes his eyes

To welcome the abyss that awaits him

 

From the depths of the sea

Was a child no longer in sight

His beloved cried

With a goodbye

He flew to the sky
