After The Village Lyrics by Quodia

The Arrow: A Story In Seven Parts

2008

After he leaves the village,
the boy will feel like he’s been seen for the first time,
recognized in a unique way.
He will walk off into the distance,
sensing within himself
all the power given to him as a small child,
mixed with that power which he built himself.
As he walks, he will see nothing behind him,
and he will begin to move faster.
He will begin to leave the ground,
and the light of the Sun will be in the distance.
He will go past that,
and move upwards.
He will begin to move very fast -
all his vision pointing forward -
seeing only blackness, for a time,
but a blackness he will not fear.
And he will go higher and higher,
travelling far, far, far into the distance.
Small luminous punctures will appear in the black,
and he will feel himself even stronger -
all the strength that has been added to him, over time,
pushing right up to the front
as he soars
into the stars.
And when he gets to where he’s been moving to,
he will spread himself out -
spread himself out wide across the stars.
And when he does this,
he will feel even more within himself,
though not unlike what he felt
at the very beginning.
