The Koi Speaks.

"I sit. I sit in a sun's ray across from another blotch of light on the dark floor of the forest. I am compelled to sit here, staring at the other empty space. I am compelled to the lonely feeling of sitting across from an empty beam of light."
***
"I sit. I sit and the light feels cold to me where it should feel warm and inviting, maybe even scorching on my fur and scales. I long to see a face in the sun across from me. I long to see a face and a glowing name in the sun across from me. It is a disconsolate caressing that brought me to sit in the beam of cold light, an empty splotch of light across from me."
***
"It dims as I sit, the empty light across from me becomes less vibrant. It darkens, where my beam stays ever-bright, ever-cold around my form. It colors like a bruise, as the one inside me swells and darkens my fabled heart. All in the suddenness of a sigh it leaves. My bruised heart remains."
***
"I am as a window of stained glass, coloring my circle of light with flames and warm sunlight. My head nuzzles the ground, cheek to soft grasses. The length of my tail spirals and waves gently on the bed of grass, the tip bending back and forth lazily. Flowers adorn it, from long ago when I was young. A wonder they still look brilliant, frozen in time on my amaranthine fur."
***
"I am an island, though I am surrounded by others. My heart is healing, though I am always battered by more waves as a shore against the ocean. No matter how long I am tossed, though, I will not erode. I will not fade from what I am. I am an island in a sea of discord, a calm in a storm, a father to those who wish to have me as their own. I will not fade, for I am timeless. I will always be when someone is around to wish for me."
***
"I lay in that lonely beam of light, awaiting a darkness that will never come. My ecstasy shows from tail to nose, eyes closed in the wonderment of the blur of light bathing me. I am an island, peaceful like a silent church though not foreboding. I am a haven to those who wish me to be their own. I am cool in the heat of a beam of blazing sun. "
***
"I lay, a fairy tale in a forest of fairy tales. My heart beats beneath taut muscle and scaled flesh, beating for those who wish to hear it. I will be, it will beat, rhythmically and timelessly, as endless as the forest and as endless as I."
