Serafina (Part 1)
(Your journey actually had a very emotional start when you were only seven years old. At this tender age, you were kidnapped from your home. Here you are dealing with being locked in the highest room of a faraway tower.)
Four stone walls surround a faded wooden floor
A large glass window and a locked metal door
I walk over to the window to see if it's possible to escape
Only to be discouraged by the deadly landscape
Snow falls on the window's other side
I'm in a large tower, between winter mountains it hides
The ground looks too far and the tower too tall
I doubt I would even survive the fall
In frustration my tiny hands slam the wood floor!
I don't know if I can take anymore!
So I sit down and I cry
Hot tears rush down my face as I constantly ask why.
Why, of all orphans, was I adopted by an old woman so kind?
Why was her home full of treasures people could only dream to find?
Why did she give me this green emerald ring?
Why did she play piano and teach me to sing?
At that thought I manage a small smile through the tears
I start remembering her lullaby as if it plays in my ears
The melody was kept safe in my heart
And inside it feels like fire starts
So I open my mouth and sing
As notes echo my mind goes on remembering everything
How one day two of us walked in a castle park
We did not see the villain wearing a cloak so dark
This person grabbed me and took me away!
I haven't seen that kind lady ever since that day
I remember being blindfolded for such a long time
Threatened and spoonfed by the cloaked villain of this crime
I would hear carriage wheels turning as if we were on an endless trip
Until I was forced out of the carriage, and on the ground I did slip
Still blindfolded, but I knew I fell in snow
My captor and I walked a few icy paces until the cold let go
Then it felt like I was being led up endless stairs.
Everything that happened just didn't seem fair!
Before the kidnapper placed me in this tower prison cell
I kicked until I hit a leg and heard the sound as she fell
She screamed in a voice raspy like rusted nails!
A voice I promise to put in a dungeon without fail
Now my feelings are too much to carry
So much lost my mind is growing wary
I don't know where things went wrong!
All I have left is this ring and a song.
My lullabye still echos all around
Suddenly there is a change in the sound
My voice soars really high!
Again I'm left to wonder why
Lyrics from my lips transform into ancient words
The most heavenly song I've ever heard!
Now all of my skin shines with light
As my song gets louder something shakes in the corner of my sight
The window is trembling out of control!
Yet my song still manages to comfort and console
Finally the glass shatters into shards!
Mountain wind blows through the opening really hard
But I do not feel cold
For some reason I have grown bold
Something soft ruffles against my hand
I only realize when on two feet I stand
My back now has six white wings spread like eagles in flight!
Three to my left and three to the right
I now understand that flight is the route
These wings and open window are my way out
I step out onto the window ledge for that kind old woman's sake
With spread wings a leap of faith I finally take!
(Who is this woman that adopted you? What's important about the ring? Who kidnapped you? Why did you sprout wings? These are so many questions that you will find the answers to dear adventurer. Don't forget to listen to the music/video and vote/comment!)
