The River of Styx
-
Bound to the chains of unwanted fate, she cries
Her tears welled deep within her breast.
The chain bound tight within her chest.
Hands dug deep into the mud.
-
She pulls at the world
Pulls at the unrelenting flow
That time seems to keep
Stuck knee deep in the river of Styx
-
She screams at the world
Her throat torn, lips cracked
Her lover gone
Drowned in the river of Styx
-
She digs deep
Bound strong to the chains of unwanted fate
She tugs
Hands dug deep into the mud.
-
She turns her back on the world
Her eyes hazed with memory
Her mind sharp with pain
Waist deep in the river of Styx
-
She screams at the world
Her throat torn, lips cracked
Chained to fate
Drowning in the river of Styx
-
She cries out his name,
Syllables broken
Heart shattered, fingers trembling
Dying in the river of Styx
-
She sees him, her mind fuzzy
Her fingers dirty,
Her mind sharp with pain
Her chest chained to fate
-
He reaches for her hand,
She thinks to pull back
Her fingers dirty
Her mind fuzzy
-
He smiles, reaches for her
She thinks no more
Her fingers dirty, mind sharp
She takes his hand
-
Sinking deep into the river of Styx
She embraces him
Her mind no longer fuzzy
Her hands clean, Tears dry.
