The screaming, the shouting

The crying, the sobbing

The hoping, the praying

The knowledge that I'm alone

Where do I run?

To whom can I turn?

Are you with her?

Is it safe to go there?

Scorn from my loved ones

Is your family like this?

The darkness welcomes me

As my only form of bliss

In a land filled with snow

Eternal winter froze her heart

My internal flame weakens

Flickering beneath her glare

I fight to keep my passion alive

My own knight in shining armor

I raise my fists only in defense

And wait the day that I can escape

From beneath her oppressing thumb
