Chapter 90 - Part 2: A.S.O.N's

The next one

Was more obscured

Though just as terrifying

Yet harder to recall

Aside from key bits and pieces

There were the ghosts

But I was now

An acclaimed person

Of interest

I was being called a witch

Despite not knowing anything

About that rumor

Or about what else was being said

Something about I'm a witch

Named Constance

I'm the burning witch

The witch was set on fire

And burned for a thousand years

Her name was Constance

I will die

I'm the burning witch

So I will be set on fire

Like her... I am her... The same as her

I am the burning witch, Constance

And the ghosts

The ghosts

Everything spiraled after that

It was hazy

But the haze clears just enough

For me to realize

I was holding on tightly to a compass

It was like the thought of my keychain was imprinted upon it.

Like when I looked at this compass

I called it my star

And the phrase on my keychain

Was quietly repeated in my head

"Go directly in the direction of your dreams"

Something about this compass

Was to point me in the direction

Of my dreams and that I should follow

My path or something laid bare before me

And the ghosts

Tried to take it away from me

They were pulling on it

But I kept trying to get it back

Saying my star, no not my star

Please stop, this is my star, my star...

I am glad that I awoke

Before they managed their task

Otherwise I would feel empty

As I lived the rest of my life

Deprived; void of direction

Mourning the loss of my guiding star
