with heart-torn capillaries
this world imprisoned a girl in its luminous sheets,
trapped her in its milky, moon-shine
silver-scarred eyes,
and held her, and lulled her;
broken innocence unto sleep.

she started off dark--
like every poet should,
and yet, as her light eyes
scorched the sun,
the universe grew jealous;
her natural scent of flower and rum
caused stars to flee the galaxies,
swim out of the spacial current,
and nest in her timid smile.

metaphors lurked above,
she grasped them with tiny hands,
no longer copper and kissed with sun
but pale and scared and soft.

for space's jealousy was strong,
sapping the nature of her,
and would not be defeated by words,
so the universe snatched her, and took her,
whisked her away into a place of darkness
where there was no sound,
and silence clouded the non-air.

she wasn't to breathe.

and thus this world eventually reclaimed her,
sucking her back firmly into that dark place,
her words mystified and forgotten,
tiny grasp, weakened yet strong
ripped from the flowers and rum.
she hated this place
she hated the universe
and in her hate,
she vanished.

this girl, who is she?
trapped in beauty, and then never to return,
her hate was her downfall, the last hope
she forsake. forgiveness was the last
she offered, and in her abuse
let it slide away...

the stars returned to the sky.

hope you like (:
