It is the fallen angel within
That we should worry about.
The wings that have slowly
Been torn and stained,
The flute that has rusted,
Smile that has chipped.
She is dissolving
Into a world of thorns;
Soft skin is cracking,
Red lips are fading.
Her eyes bleed of hazel
For there is no light
For her iris to capture.
Long lashes have thinned,
Shimmer lost in the breeze.
For such a loss?
Wail for her return
Into a realm of radiance?
Or is imperfection
Something feared and revolted?
One dance with a demon
And the gates are sealed.
The Sun looks down upon her,
Remote and callous.
Her stars have weakened,
Diminishing into the abyss.
Even mother Moon turns her head,
Leaving the dark craters of her face
To furnish bitter solace.
No water is replenishing,
No fruit is sweet and gratifying.
Only the taste of revenge fills her cup
Starving still for a whisper of wind.
Blood cleansing her hands.
With endless ticking clocks,
Frozen time speeds along
Leaving her breathless and faint.
Fear carries her legs,
Bending and turning
In a lonely waltz.
She drags her feet
Continuously in circles
Around the dusty windows.
Her arms turn to wood,
Vines choke her breasts.
Splintered fingers caress
Her outstretched neck.
Twisted and dry,
She cringes along
This path of misery.
She is a servant to hate
And is eternally bound.
