Kicking Screaming Im Coming

she shakes violently at night skates through universes of nightmares quaking inside at the moths trying to put out her light. kicking out at all who show up to hold her hand but she can kick and scream all she wants im not here to play nice with the shadows that box at the soul. Im here to show her a way past these snakes strangling her name. You dont have to hold my hand im guiding yours to a safety your afraid is not real or that it will never really come full circle for you. Whispering songs and sending wavelengths of mirrored light. Im inviting you into the showers of the kingdoms you hold bound up inside. Im mirroring back your light and come what may im holding on tight. We will sail past this we will get past this night. You do have someone who knows you deep down that is by your side. Not like the others but no knight in shining armor either. A ship with torn sails but going the right way to the right light is were you are. I know your terrified but your in the safety of care in my arms. In my gaze you see glimpses of a home thats hard to believe is true just hold on I can show you. The inner kingdoms I hold up we will fly to in this deep im flying faster now just have a little faith and hold onto my wings. Im not as frail as I seem here inside I can show you many things. Ive been here awhile waiting to help you sing. Your true words and songs will be found holding onto me.
