(I was inspired by this brilliant piece of music, and I recommend Lacey Sturm's music and the band she once was the singer for known as Flyleaf.) 873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZwXnaXeHOg
Once upon a child with a mind like a tempest, was a dream that lay dormant inside the child's soul.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9w98uLpX7Q
Now, the child knew of the dream's existence, but didn't care for it.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRBfNy3z6U
You see, the child had a problem that many in this life counted by days would never face.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkAVmSiCFx
The child did not exist.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRrwMpmzKrU
Though he lived and breathed in the world of every human, he was unfamiliar with the concepts of the world, for before his birth he was made nonexistent and his soul was brought to a world that could only half-exist.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jAqo7pN2n
When the child was brought to the world of the normal humans, no one understood him.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwpRAW3250
No one heard him. No blood was related to his.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtNiwWr4RZl
To all he met, he was considered nonexistent not only because of his difference in personality, but also in appearance.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqv6Yc9yKe
The child wasn't like all children with their rosy cheeks and their soft hands.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEP8S1RdPHV
He was a child that was scrawny, with a face of hopelessness and sorrow.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs0rOfYQyxH
He had unkempt hair and bruises on his face.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjuXFMlOI6
Because of this, he was abused and rejected by other humans.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyJoeRyvgx
And because of this, his dream slept coldly inside his soul.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGgjpUdlYx
Until one day...873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRH3A9zjsYv
A man of sorrow and pain stood alone at the edge of his life.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh9e0OjiXmF
A roaring storm raged around him.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdo4EB8f1fX
Thunder drummed loudly and lightning shot all around.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNjTthLF4G
The sky was a dark grey with clouds that were spun by the unsettling winds.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh06ooboREF
However, the man did not feel the setting around him.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV50jsacLgu
He did not feel wonder or worry. Peace nor fight.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5VREmp6qU
He only felt emptiness and lamentation.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlbZieePVC
The man had questioned for so long what the purpose of his life was ever since he was a child that never existed.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqwxVlpWQPs
He had lost all hope of ever dreaming and he had decided that the only way to ever feel alive was for him to die.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrv639LaMg
As he looked down where only jagged rocks like knives lay, he breathed a silent sentence and let himself fall with the tears that he had held inside for so long.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLU4VGHM146
The child opened his eyes.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTseRVK3aQ
Crystal blue water surrounded him and bright light shone in front of him.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1WvQeCWpu
A figure of a man walked towards him.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY25948iYcQ
The figure was beyond extravagant, with robes of white and a face that shone brighter than the sun itself. 873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4cjaotG7H
He held his nail-pierced hands out wide and walked to the child.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE29GRefEKA
"Do not be afraid, my child." began the man, whose voice was both powerful and peaceful, "For I am with you."873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOHXANRjVY
873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQazelorHmt
The child, who trembled at the sight of the man and all of his brilliance, stared at him with eyes that grew with a wonder.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxkVGlApob
Why would any man speak to him? What was the man's intentions behind his words?873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkiO7dbNIK
873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqK62BnsENc
"Do not hold onto to the pains of your past and what others say to you, for words of no worth fade in the end." said the man.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53lTkRIReJ
"But how can I do so if I am all alone?" asked the child in a weak and silent voice.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYn58kE7QIE
"You may feel alone in your battle in this life, with everyone you meet trying their best to bring you down, but if you hold onto the One who was given you life, you will never be alone."873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywP2BQqmb1
"But I have no purpose. I don't exist. Why would anyone stand beside me?" asked the child.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcusybNVuOF
873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRfHzBC1xe
The man smiled and knelt down so that he could be at the same height of the child.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0oSk1JPTx
"My child, you do have a purpose. You have a purpose that comes in the form of a dream. You have been given this dream so that you may fulfill it, but not alone.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNrOUjIMOq
For every dream is created so that it may glorify the Lord above, and if man was to accomplish a dream alone, the dream would become dead. The Lord has been waiting for you to let Him into you so that your questioning of existence may cease and that you may find rest in Him.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCsduMhyyZ
You do exist, even if others don't believe that you do. You do not exist because of them, but because of the One who was died for you."873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvspWw5AzL
"I...I..." began the boy. His voice trembled and tears began to fall. The words of the man had pierced though a storm that was dark and horrid, a storm that haunted the boy. 873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjQg7A34tL
"Who...are you?" whispered the boy.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEzmgBGJwV
"I Am." replied the man, wiping away the timid child's tears.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMexUnzryEi
873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Pvs22Yd0k
The child looked at the man. His face was brighter and his hand were held out wide.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76PvjjHYWG
The boy noticed scars from nails on the man's wrists.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66wv5cax9z
At that moment, the boy knew who he spoke to and he began to cry tears of relief.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRPoLyZD86
The boy fell into the man's arms and the man held the child assuredly.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTGpKKB28M
"I tell you this, your pain and trials of this life are far from over, but you will never be alone, for I have felt all your pain and I shall stand with you till and after your end has come."873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnkyf9DRZi
"Thank you..." replied the child.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58AC5lwCyE
At that moment, the crystal blue separated and the light of the man took over the surroundings.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVqSB9BY6CD
The man of sorrow and pain opened his eyes and stood up.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rH3vS5gYq
The sea flowed gently and the sky was colored with a sunset of brilliance, with stars that fell gently into the sea.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Oo90Ig2N8
The man smiled a smile that he had never before.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1jzfKQOCt
He smiled peacefully.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWMCWz0lyF
For he, the man who had once not existed, had found a purpose though the storm that had held under waters of chaos for so long. 873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAkbgrg2j0
He found something to hold onto, something to keep him breathing, something to keep him alive...and he was going to chase it till the end if his days.873Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbVoufTZwt
