A child I am, not much more than a year.
here I crawl into a cavern of fear.
hollow... its all hollow.
inching my fingers into the tiny crevice of hope
I, bedazzled and encrypted per-chance have found a rope!
I crawl a little further to the heavenly glimmer.
happiness it seems is calling me nearer!
Its siren's song that carresses and tickles my ear.
my very senses shake, how could this be here?!
grabbing ar rocks, at times shards of glass..
pulling and tugging as memories drift past.
good, bad, and ugly, the time is passing still.
all will be fine if i reach the top of this entombed hill.
that sparkle, still there I can see it! almost there!
why does it seem like this rope has been shrinking
withering away with the sands that are fading.
but I keep moving..
Suddenly! sharp pain pulses through my arm.
sending my body into a sense of alarm.
Sharp glass, it pierced my hand and blood, its just flowing.
I catch a glimmer of flash, instantly knowing
that this glow i've been chasing.
Just the refracting of shining glass..
and truth hits me as I collapse.
..........25 years have passed...........
