I've been to so many places, some of them I remember more than others. I will always remember the one place I could never manage to make snow. No matter how hard I tried the snowflakes would not fall. There lived a girl in a tower...she was beautiful. Her hair, I could never quite understand how it resembled the sun's rays of light so well.
She could never see me...but that wasn't a surprise considering no one could see me back then. But that didn't stop me from being fascinated by her, maybe even adoring her. Watching as she grew up and her hair growing longer and longer as time passed by.
Her desire to see the "floating lights" became more of an obsession with every birthday she had. She wished so badly to see those lights that only shown that one night of the year. Oh how I wished I could just sweep her off her feet and take her to them. We could fly among them in each other's arms. She would be even more beautiful, if that was possible, than ever next to those lanterns.
The feelings that I had when that man came and took her with him was a mixed bag. A part of me of me was happy for her, her dream would finally come true! The other part though...was selfish. This man was taking his place by her side on this journey to see the lights, something I had been dreaming of doing for a long time. All for a selfish reason, greed. I felt like my greatest secret and treasure was being stolen away from me, it only hurt more realizing that I could never do anything about it.
No one can see me. She doesn't even know I exist.
