Child of Light


Child of light, wand'ring through the world,
Innocent soul in a sea of night;
Your eyes are blind to the subtler elements,
You see no gray, only black and white

Candles in darkness, they say it's better than pitch;
But you can't see the shadows from a lighted way;
Blinded as you are by your childish hopes,
You'll be so easy to twist, to sway . . .

Queen Kari, child-ruler of light;
Queen Kari, innocent soul in night;
Queen Kari, you always seem to be right;
But Queen Kari, you'll soon join my side of the fight . . .

Such an asset, yet such a small child;
They don't see your powers, your forces, your sight . . .
They don't do you justice; if they knew your potential
They wouldn't endanger the strength of your might

They've done so before; it's just so amazing
That they'd jeopardize you; you should have been killed
A million times before now, due to them,
Yet you've always come through, just a little ill

Oh, Kari; there's such power in your being
Oh, Kari; eventually, you'll start seeing;
Oh, Kari; how you reacted when the bear was beating;
Oh, Kari; I can't wait for our first meeting

When will you see that they don't care
About you, that you're only being used?
With me, my future dark mistress,
I'll see that your talents are never abused.

Those mindless fools; your brother, his friends.
They think they have power, but no, they're wrong;
You deserve far more than you have now, child!
Without you, they'd all be gone, gone!

Sweet Kari, guardian of a thousand minds,
Sweet Kari, light of a thousand kinds;
Sweet Kari, you don't know what you'll find
Sweet Kari, about yourself, when you join my side . . .

((*quietly*))
Queen Kari, powerful ruler of light,
Queen Kari, innocent soul in the fight;
Queen Kari, you always seem to be in my sight;
But, Queen Kari, when will we finally unite . . .?


Author's Note:

I don't know what I had in mind when I wrote this.  I was asked to make a story based around this, but I really had nothing more planned out than this.  It just kinda came . . . I dunno, really.
