I Found the Child -poem *Possible Trigger Warning*

[Atlas]

Cast into shadow
by the glaring of the limelight.
Burnt by the sun, she fell
her feathers on fire.

Hidden in darkness,
I found the Child.
Crouched and crying,
I found the Child.

Fallen from grace,
a miserable thing.
An inhuman monstrosity,
A horrid little tragedy.

Trapped and destitute,
I found the Child.
Crouched and dieing,
I found the Child.

How long it's been since
she's gone unseen.
It's been too long
since I've looked for me.

In the silence,
I found the Child.
Quieted,
I found the Child.

[M.R.]

Wow. That's a really good poem Atlas.
