Dream on, starchild.
By Iron Blood Orphan
Fleeing through the night that grasps your coat
Running, tripping as you go
Spectres of black pricking your fingertips
I'll pull you through the shadows
Iron at my side and steel in our hearts
I stand strong through this winter gaze
We will pursue the lights that none else see
Ice blue and life green
You've seen what I am and know what we'll do
Thousands of creatures below
Skeletal horrors that know no kinship
Look not child, for they only know anger
Your pride is our salvation
Knowing full well the hell that consumes our past
We will forge a better future
With you at my side

Interesting read. Part of me wondered if this soul was its own entity or a realization of destiny. The past is so easily forgotten. Often easily re-written. This felt like part one of something potentially epic. Write on :)

Thank you. It's mostly just the feeling of desiring escape. Running away from home or a life that doesn't afford you humanity. Sometimes people just want to leave it all behind and pursue their dreams. They may be afraid to go without the proper support. Sometimes even just a long walk and a new plan means the world to someone.
