She walked into the moonlight
In nothing but a shawl
Everything was ready
She was going to end it all
~
She kneeled on the ground
To prey one last time
Please forgive me she cried
Straight from her heart, not her mind.
~
Just then she felt a hand on her shoulder
A gentle voice said
“my child why do you want your life to be over?”
“Nothing is bad enough for you to crave to be dead.”
~
She looked behind her and saw a teenage man
A knife on his hip
A blade in his hand
Why he had them, she could not understand.
~
Look at you! You are young! She cried
How could you possibly fathom?
The guilt in my heart
Has created a chasm!
~
I did a most terrible thing
Something like this
You could not glean.
~
My life is over anyway
For this I need to pay!
Now please, just go away!
~
He knelt down beside her
And caressed her hair
“It sounded to me like a cry of need
What would I be if I did not heed
Your call?”
~
“You asked for forgiveness
But you already were
There is no need to do this
To this I swear.”
~
She started to cry
Than to weep
All of her teardrops landed at his feet
~
She cried until her tears dried up
She was cradled in his armes
By then it was almost sunup.
~
“I promise you it will be alright
You have the knowledge to make it right
Look at me now and understand
You have many great works ahead of you
In this wonderful land.”
~
He stood up and made to go
He smiled at her gently and said
“I have always loved you, you know”
~
He kissed her hand
And squeezed it tight
And started to walk
toward the emerging light.
~
And as he did
He started to glow
She covered her eyes as the light
Started to grow
~
In a flash
He was gone
Disappeared from sight
And then she knew
Whom she had then spent the night
She finally understood
She was going to be alright
~
She looked up to the sky
And in a whisper she replied
Thank you for everything
I will wait for my time to die
~
And with a smile
She walked toward her door
The sun shining
She looked forward
to what she had in store.
