| "Girl In The Forest" She lay in the forest. Alone and in pain. She couldn't move or speak. The blood that had been flowing heavily from the gash on her head was slowing down and forming a hard crust. She just lay there, parilized. Her mouth was dry from lack of water, I suppose you could say it was as dry as her soul. Her eyes were moist from the desire to cry, which was something she just could not allow. Even after all this, she still refused to cry. "what's wrong with not crying?" She thought. "I've survived long enough with out it, and I will continue to do so." She wonderd how she got here, There wasn't much that she rememberd. Could remember. Wanted to remember. All her mind would allow her to acknowledge were horrible things, and those things she more then gladly blocked out. Her body automatically shiverd when she started to think about those evils in her life. Her head was pounding now. It felt as if a hammer was hitting it. "Damn you!!!!!! Damn you!!!! You hatefull bastard!! How could I ever have trusted you?? How could I have given you my love? What would make me so stupid to believe that you, some one, could actually love me? I'm not worthy of your Love Father!!! I'M NOT WORTHY!!!" The loud, clear voice filled the air, as the wolfs howled.Night started to set in, and the air started to get chilly, she didn't have any warm clothes. Only a torn t-shirt, and shorts that were soaking wet from water. She didn't know when she was in water, and it hurt her to try to think. She only knew that she had been in a river or stream, or something. All the while unsure of how she had gotten there. Here. Her body started to shake from the cold winds, while drifting into a restless sleep, visions came to her threw out the night. Visions that she tried to block. She woke up with a start. Some one was there. "Hello? Who's there??!!?" No answer. Her voice pertayed the panic that she felt. Seeing a shadow, but there wasn't much she could do. The shadow moved towards her. He came and stared down at her. A smirk crossed his face. "Are you going to help me? Please?" He just stood there for a while, and walked away. "NO! COME BACK!! PLEASE!!" She screamed!! All the while he keeped walking. Left alone once again. Left alone to ponder what had accured in her life to make her end up like this, she drifted off, into her thoughts... some happy, but others were not. She heard a noise that brought her back to reallity. NO! It wasn't a noise. It was more like a flash of light. That brought her back. She moved her head as much as her body would allow. Still seeing nothing. Then, a wave of peace washed over her, it started to become brighter and the light surrounded her. Soon a young women garthed in white, with flowing blond hair that went all the way to the ground, was before her. "My child, Why do you doubt?" " What do I doubt?" " You doubt the love of your Father." "No, I do not. I know He loves me, but I am too worthless to be loved by such a person." "Oh, but my child, you were created by Him. This makes you worthy of His love. All the sins that you have done. They were erased, when you recieved His Gift of love." "Yes..... I know that, but that doesn't take away how I feel..." "Child, don't you think I know that? I know what's going on. I 'm your guardian angel. I have been with you since the day you were born. Following you around. Keeping you safe." "Safe?!?!?! You call letting those horrible things happen to me "Keeping" me safe?" The women looked down at the girl for a few moments with pitting eyes.... Then slowly she kneeled down besides her, brushing her hair out of her face, and stroked her cheek. The womens beautiful white gown started to turn dark brown from the pool of blood that surrounded the girl. |
