forgotten

[Katalina]

awoken in the land of the midnight sun
grassy planes are flowing in the wind
where once there were none

air is warm blowing through my hair
flowers of colors cover my body
crimson sky scatters my evening pray

Lichen dance to the beat of a new dawn
an arctic fox runs along the seas of blue
the last frost is gone

tears fall down my cheeks
for I had hope to see my icy mountains
and covered seas

A storm brews in the south
lightning flashes in my eyes
like a dragon blowing fire from it's mouth


closer they come
no where to run
questions of why
holding my ears
please no more sighs

I close my eyes
the air swirls around me
I was not their prize
I was their gift

I will not surrender to their cries
I gave them a chance to see
they gave me no choice,
but to flee

My skin turns icy
my body starts to shake
my breathing is deep

one final tear falls
for those who did not fight for me.
