Safety She was lost, so I told her, "Come into the light."Safety by ~kaleallerion
Curious, she stepped outside
Just long enough to see them.
"See how safe we are?"
But she saw the ones who were hiding in fear.
"See how blessed we are?"
But she saw the ones who hoarded their goods and the ones who were empty-handed.
"See how loving we are?"
But she saw the ones who preyed on the weak like day-dwelling vampires.
"You'll be happy here."
But she saw the ones whose eyes held no light, no hope, no future.
After a while, she gave a sad smile,
And out of a desire of self-preservation said, "Good bye,"
Retreating to the safety of her cave.
