Playing with Fire
Prologue
My world.
It seemed so simple.
I took.
I stole.
I was cruel.
But then you came,
You precious thing.
My perfect world,
Turned upside down.
The first time I saw you, you were a child. Unable to fathom the truth of good and evil. Nothing is what it seems. You were content to snuggle up with your stuffed animals and listen to a fairy tale. When you had heard it enough, you went outside and acted it out. All the parts were yours, and no one could speak without your permission. You heard an applauding audience wherever you went. You were the star.
I moved mountains and stars,
I was your slave.
I gave everything.
Everything you wanted you had.
But you didn't see,
All the power you had over me.
As you matured, your stories and fairy tales matured right with you. You made your costumes and went to where no one would ridicule you. I watched you through all this. I was your approving audience, following you wherever you went. I knew that eventually you would call, and you did not disappoint me. I tried to treat you as I had other mortals, but you were special, though I did not realize it. I taunted you, hoping against hope that you would realize that you couldn't win. Then you would come to me, confused and asking for the answers to the unanswerable. Then I could control you, and take you in my arms and soothe away all your pains. But you had courage, and a pride that kept your hope up when things were hopeless. You knew you would win, or you would die. So you won. And I let you, because I loved you.
Now all I have power over is dreams.
Dreams of you.
Dreams that you needed me,
And you called.
I knew we would meet again, someday. It's only forever, not long at all.
Not long at all…..
Chapter 1 coming soon….
