Twilight Tale
its eating me up inside
i can no longer run and hide
i can feel the fear ebbing away.
the rose arch gave way to the
altar; i watch my dreams crucify
tearing apart things i love
the needs and the wants lay paralysed
to be turned into nothingness,
the damp coldness left me shocked
stunned, non-functioning, stunned;
what am i to do now?
what am i to do now?
where I’m going is anybody’s play.
To grovel and wait for mercy?
or lay down in submission?
submitting to their needs,
and serving every sighs and whimps?
Its eating me up inside
i can no longer run and hide
i can feel the fear ebbing away.
i smile as i rise,
the power surges through my wings
wings, that no scissors can tease
and i will soar high.
