Fae

Stay put

Dark tunnel fills with light,
you are taken hostage by fire flies

Too gentle to be a threat,
and you forget yourself

Too small for you to think
they can take you over,
and even as the end comes closer,
you try to dive back into the dark

Because that’s where illumination comes

.

To guide you, push you forward

Then, to test your knowing

Do you know where you’re going?

How you got lost, where did you start?

.

Illumination drives away the dark,
but your roots

should stay put
