(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.) 995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF27WHgEubf
Once upon a child with a mind like a tempest, was a dream that lay dormant inside the child's soul.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVv3Fopyrmq
Now, the child knew of the dream's existence, but didn't care for it.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz53ip3U3kZ
You see, the child had a problem that many in this life counted by days would never face.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb87Kn4I4XU
The child did not exist.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUPPO0uA0B
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.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjFF1SPCDZ
When the child was brought to the world of the normal humans, no one understood him.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETjrKSMTkm
No one heard him. No blood was related to his.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQ4bpBid2f
To all he met, he was considered nonexistent not only because of his difference in personality, but also in appearance.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08FpQo997f
The child wasn't like all children with their rosy cheeks and their soft hands.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPNDsXFL3k
He was a child that was scrawny, with a face of hopelessness and sorrow.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMMxyCeJUj
He had unkempt hair and bruises on his face.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUbb6Tz4n0
Because of this, he was abused and rejected by other humans.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCZORBfQZA
And because of this, his dream slept coldly inside his soul.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3DxInfxiph
Until one day...995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXg99exPdH
A man of sorrow and pain stood alone at the edge of his life.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwagfuXHCB
A roaring storm raged around him.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPM090dUJye
Thunder drummed loudly and lightning shot all around.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcIC9TYN1K
The sky was a dark grey with clouds that were spun by the unsettling winds.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgqiviD7Bn
However, the man did not feel the setting around him.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyse6R7brq
He did not feel wonder or worry. Peace nor fight.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjfqdoYGad
He only felt emptiness and lamentation.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYQcnlq7ZB
The man had questioned for so long what the purpose of his life was ever since he was a child that never existed.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWuqN74R6Lb
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.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PnCzfEeP3
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.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIr3iMjQi3
The child opened his eyes.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4XxODg03ZO
Crystal blue water surrounded him and bright light shone in front of him.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KxcoOuqsx
A figure of a man walked towards him.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzo5MaJFSq
The figure was beyond extravagant, with robes of white and a face that shone brighter than the sun itself. 995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9nqJ6m2NCH
He held his nail-pierced hands out wide and walked to the child.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVXUEf2T0k
"Do not be afraid, my child." began the man, whose voice was both powerful and peaceful, "For I am with you."995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7Z6RN0lpS
995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ruKFwXg6p
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.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrDL2RBDuq
Why would any man speak to him? What was the man's intentions behind his words?995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8g6CTXlcbH
995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJAkuosQhi
"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.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LEL7WaUgx
"But how can I do so if I am all alone?" asked the child in a weak and silent voice.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnhHnen6WNi
"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."995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCD1z7HtTr
"But I have no purpose. I don't exist. Why would anyone stand beside me?" asked the child.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgb7hDnbmqW
995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGvnZp6S38
The man smiled and knelt down so that he could be at the same height of the child.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYY8Kndgn7
"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.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqeBFx3zjc
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.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhMjlakbgTo
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."995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiIl8RVQUz
"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. 995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMC1XJBYTXX
"Who...are you?" whispered the boy.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKDMHLAwKz
"I Am." replied the man, wiping away the timid child's tears.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmLnmMb2CN
995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudnFyB38CX
The child looked at the man. His face was brighter and his hand were held out wide.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYkcgQNEqw
The boy noticed scars from nails on the man's wrists.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbbr86slc2
At that moment, the boy knew who he spoke to and he began to cry tears of relief.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJ5oLn4J5p
The boy fell into the man's arms and the man held the child assuredly.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvI7MxX4f2
"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."995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEtKV9Rc15
"Thank you..." replied the child.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8tAIz8wH5
At that moment, the crystal blue separated and the light of the man took over the surroundings.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjPnWlh1fk7
The man of sorrow and pain opened his eyes and stood up.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGDjZ6qBjL
The sea flowed gently and the sky was colored with a sunset of brilliance, with stars that fell gently into the sea.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcXxQYxsjT
The man smiled a smile that he had never before.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPpLmCEI42
He smiled peacefully.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuwaI9ogcM
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. 995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDG1Ib0qaej
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.995Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYk8zWy0fR
