LJ Idol: Week Six - Not of Your World

[ckocher]

I was seven when I first came across the term changeling. My heart leapt when I understood what the word meant. It made so much sense to me. I would sneak outside and lie on my back in the grass, trying to imagine what woodland faeries would look like, what it would be like to slip through the forest, to run along the river with them. To feel like

I really enjoyed this.

(Though I'm watching actively re-watching Star Trek: DS9 right now, so the first thing I thought of when you said 'changeling' was the character Odo, which I had to kind of shake out of my head as I continued to read, lol.)

I'm glad there was a happy ending for you :)

Grokked. Liked. (I'm winding down for the night. My wordiness is coming and going, and for the moment mostly going.)

you sound like a beautiful young person. I am glad you find home :-)

I loved this. Very well done. I am glad that you found your way home.

I also love "Dante's Prayer". Strangely enough, that is the song that I want played at my funeral. Hopefully that will not be any time soon though!!
