Been Forever
-Me-
My shadow drips from me
and pools on the dance floor
All those pieces of me
converge and abhor
the essence of me
as they form into something
resembling me
but consisting of nothing
I dance with that being
as if it were me
I dance with the shadows
that sway all around me
I search for an answer
to the question of me,
but forget who I am
as the music surrounds me
-The City-
Loveless lullabies
were all she could sing;
cast away to the mercy
of indifferent streets,
overseen by a looming,
abusing,
consuming great city
With clear skies behind eyes
foregrounded by sickness,
she watched each innocent wish
become burdened, afflicted;
losing the will
to believe in forgiveness
It was there she would stay,
fated to wait,
destined to pray
for darkness' deliverance
