The Boy Without a Fairy

x

Wisdom clung to his appearance, to his aura, to his countenance and his presence.

Age, swirling.

x

Troubling thoughts swirled beneath sturdy surface,

a dreadful curse lurked within.

x

Heaviness, burden,

transferred from his upon a mysterious boy.

Guilt, unwritten, hidden.

x

Years, ages, passed; the darkness growing:

Fermenting, expanding, rising.

Fate, destiny:

impatient.

x

Action.

x

Called upon creature:

bright, watered sapphire, glowing,

enlightened of purpose.

x

Knowledge leaked from the treasure chest, eternal bearer of news,

a miniscule, necessary amount spoken

exposed.

x

Trembling, the shining creature,

attempting to grasp

and comprehend,

nodded: accordance.

x

Burdensome,

her task, revealed:

"Bring forth to me, the Hero of Time."

x

The Boy Without a Fairy.

x

Fluttering, soaring, lilting through the airy sky,

avoiding obstacles,

barely scraping, wings untarnished:

the azure, bright fairy, wandered with a purpose,

a place,

a home,

a boy,

in mind:

x

Slipping through the parched, course bark-lined window,

into the never-ending shaped haven,

she chanced upon purposefully...

x

A boy.

x

fairy-less, almost friendless, lonely boy.

Curled, clutching, snuggled within his sheets,

cozy in his restful cocoon,

snoring.

x

Tentatively, she pondered:

"How shall I wake him?".

x

Tentatively, she flew above his drowsy form,

shouting loudly, her tiny voice:

"Wake up!".

x

Zipping rapidly, repeating herself,

she willed the boy to awaken.
