something i just sat down and wrote. it's quite rough at the moment but
maybe it doesn't want to be fixed.


i walk in the embrace of sorrow,
i am engulfed by the stormy sky.
i know there is no tomorrow,
all that is left is the bleeding butterflies.

my head is filled with bruises
and on the floor, my shattered dreams.
i am she who always loses
and never learns quite what it all means.

my eyes, they stare at nothing,
my soul would empty itself that way.
always there is the feeling of something
missing and a debt that must be paid.

i tread the paths that angels fear
with eyes that burn like demons fire.
i have lost what i held dear
and will be consumed by grief's slow fire.

i scream to fill these empty spaces
that i am made a prisoner in.
i love and loathe those terrible faces,
the reminders of my many sins.

i laugh at those who claim to be wise
and still believe they are safe from pain,
i fix them with my hellish eyes
and make them learn to hurt again.

i am embraced by lightning's touch,
i feel too deep,
i hurt too much.
now leave me to the endless sleep.. 

i am she who walks on water
only to sink, just like a stone.
i am the very devil's daughter,
she who must always be alone..

  of spirit that they can only take on form in this world if they are
  concieved by the most skilled imagination." --terry pratchett.
