There's still beauty
if i glue my fragments
Tear by tear
Chalice of Strength is filled
You thought you're
the teardrop that would
flood mine
But i'll always be
the main character
in my fairytale
and you'll be a monster
But to grow up,
a Beauty must meet
a Beast

There is a blessing in the air,
Which seems a sense of joy to yield
To the bare trees, and mountains bare,
And grass in the green field.

A wondering changeling
fairy-born ever drifting
bewitches babies and men
and spirits them away in
one fell swoop then flies away.

She swirled widdershins
Around him.
This evening dance
Of wickedness.
He was running behind
Her anticlockwise steps.
He looked into her
Obsidian eyes
As she plunged
The knife into his heart,
Releasing his marked soul
Into the ether.
