Saw her. Saw her go. Saw her go to the place far away. Saw her go to place that's hidden to my eyes, my heart. I saw her go. And I didn't stop her. I don't know if I should have. All I could do was watch. Watch. Watch her go, leave my side, watch my warmth go away. All I could do was breathe, live, watch her go to a place far away. Farther away than I would dare to go. To a hidden place. A place hidden in the wind's secrets, a place to go only when welcomed there. A place that my eyes could not see. I know I will see it if I prod it hard enough with my heart. But I cannot. I will not. My heart. It's opened before. It was a disaster. He left. He left for the place hidden in the winds, he went, went gone. Forgotten. By all, but me. I dare not open again. Not even to find my poor sister, who has dissapeared to the land in the winds. The hidden one. The one of the Hidden Rainforest. She left me. Left. Forgot me. Now I am of the forgotten. I am gone. I cannot return. They will not let me.
Took my breath away. The water, the dampness, the glory. The place was alive. Alive with happiness, liveliness. Large, bright and colorful flowers bloomed in little pouches of dark in the tangle of green. Brilliantly dazzling colors of the butterflies and bugs left dots in my vision. And not all the place was bright. There were shadows, and dark, dark places with dangerous mysteries enclosed within. Stepped into the shade, away from the sun. Released a sigh, gazing at the wonders. I never gave another thought to my past until that moment. My birth home, my forest, it was far, far, away. I had left something there. Something just as wondrous as this place. But I couldn't place a hoof on it. It keeps constantly slipping from my mind. Like it won't let me remember. But just then, my thoughts are captured by the rainforest all over again, breath caught in my lungs. I only need just one more thing: for another to share the beauty with.
