(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.) 1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ85gOrwZtsK
Once upon a child with a mind like a tempest, was a dream that lay dormant inside the child's soul.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi3riAe8U0I
Now, the child knew of the dream's existence, but didn't care for it.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7xY2vrGbS
You see, the child had a problem that many in this life counted by days would never face.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pdxTNF64M
The child did not exist.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwPiWc5UBPQ
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.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspOCOaNhAT
When the child was brought to the world of the normal humans, no one understood him.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV3d4JJGCU4
No one heard him. No blood was related to his.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQamiaYkQ7
To all he met, he was considered nonexistent not only because of his difference in personality, but also in appearance.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDbeSAjQDR2
The child wasn't like all children with their rosy cheeks and their soft hands.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCL6r4bshbL
He was a child that was scrawny, with a face of hopelessness and sorrow.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Qh6gmMdiI
He had unkempt hair and bruises on his face.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhoZCX06ZP
Because of this, he was abused and rejected by other humans.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ394TmHOKhj
And because of this, his dream slept coldly inside his soul.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxiKD2vyzPA
Until one day...1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NtwvmNGD6
A man of sorrow and pain stood alone at the edge of his life.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PFnEenPKa
A roaring storm raged around him.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNxBNBVKEN
Thunder drummed loudly and lightning shot all around.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKGLnsR9RG
The sky was a dark grey with clouds that were spun by the unsettling winds.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlYUEBH4Nm
However, the man did not feel the setting around him.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWWP4WJmlh
He did not feel wonder or worry. Peace nor fight.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ladYnItUC
He only felt emptiness and lamentation.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLyXzzeo5u
The man had questioned for so long what the purpose of his life was ever since he was a child that never existed.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVk5vGaXTI8
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.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchgIV2z6pg
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.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeQ0TdEljB
The child opened his eyes.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBKKvfcTgS
Crystal blue water surrounded him and bright light shone in front of him.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDZ4MnjfLM
A figure of a man walked towards him.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBJ2dXG0uw
The figure was beyond extravagant, with robes of white and a face that shone brighter than the sun itself. 1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTz0w42B75B
He held his nail-pierced hands out wide and walked to the child.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp74Yu1yNkq
"Do not be afraid, my child." began the man, whose voice was both powerful and peaceful, "For I am with you."1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkHycFgB4yu
1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1NCvCUq9l4
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.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPYgjVrxVZ
Why would any man speak to him? What was the man's intentions behind his words?1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JlsliZQN2
1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjl8x3NE7go
"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.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXpdAW2pGZ
"But how can I do so if I am all alone?" asked the child in a weak and silent voice.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhHb6ttsqgi
"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."1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZJs7Ep2nJ
"But I have no purpose. I don't exist. Why would anyone stand beside me?" asked the child.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk3G0YUVcK9
1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxO0nqFpBog
The man smiled and knelt down so that he could be at the same height of the child.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqzYZMRlpT
"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.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1IXagGiSO
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.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJe2uyuDp8S
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."1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0mVBXXr4W
"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. 1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVoKwjU9CT
"Who...are you?" whispered the boy.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnhQQFmGYt
"I Am." replied the man, wiping away the timid child's tears.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLO8bxor7z
1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjjllMVuPK7
The child looked at the man. His face was brighter and his hand were held out wide.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT2FEAnGdji
The boy noticed scars from nails on the man's wrists.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntSX96QKei
At that moment, the boy knew who he spoke to and he began to cry tears of relief.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiRZ4PFwvl
The boy fell into the man's arms and the man held the child assuredly.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNj4RoTtrE7
"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."1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jdWbmNJcC
"Thank you..." replied the child.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9LYmPvF8K
At that moment, the crystal blue separated and the light of the man took over the surroundings.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BHzyrNh0H
The man of sorrow and pain opened his eyes and stood up.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6eLgdYpGD5
The sea flowed gently and the sky was colored with a sunset of brilliance, with stars that fell gently into the sea.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJkZkwIE43
The man smiled a smile that he had never before.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWPhFRdDLW
He smiled peacefully.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGIS9qSOeG
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. 1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctIoA0wFQm
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.1027Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1mYqXY44u
