"Stay kind to one another" - Ellen


I once had a dream 

of being lost in the woods.

It was dark, and scary

I couldn't find anyone

or a way out. 

So I wander in the dark 

sad, and alone.

I look to the Moon, and Stars

dimly lighting my way.

When the night ended

and the sun rose 

I was still lost in the woods

no matter how dark or bright it seems.

I'm still wandering

lost in the woods

lonely, and exhausted. 

With no one to talk to,

and nowhere to sit

I'm alone

Wandering the woods.

I stumble along a rocky path

I trip

and fall down 

I follow the rocky path 

I wanted out of the dark forest

but it led me to a clearing

Bright and full of life

This is good too

I spin around my happy place

then I start to fall

It all fades to black

Then I hear the dark voice

"Wake Up"
