My Protector

I look outside to see the soft bright light.
I step out into the open air and feel it brush my skin.
Like the touch of a mother,
Or the caress of a lover.
I smile and look to the heavens.
My Lady, Artemis, smiles back gently.
Her light making my pale flesh glow in the blackness.
I do not sleep,
My protector watching over me.
Protecting me, keeping me company,
I will never be alone.
