Shalla is the name
The name I hear
Shalla my dear
My love
My hope
The dreams of fear
The dreams of fear bring Shalla more dear
The lights that reflect Shalla to my eye
The darkness neglects the panic and shy
The dreams of darkness aspire my mind
To neglect the dreams without Shalla
The dreams that hurt my soul and core
The dreams I neglect to accept false lore
Shalla my dear
The only name that fills my bones
Joy, contentment, and lust
The name I hear
I’ll always hold dear
For Shalla could turn to dust
Long after
The storm is gone
The mangled corpse of Shalla
My lovely swan
My pride
My joy
My bride
My love
My trust
My dreams
My swan
My dove
I’m driven to pain
Inescapable clenching
Of remorse and broken opportunities
With the only one I could hold dear
Shalla is gone forever
Shalla my dear
The dreams come back
And so I here
The true lore that brought me fear
My neglections blinded me
Drove me to denial
Brined me and sliced me open
So vile
That beast I neglected for so long
Showed me that Shalla meant more
More than I knew
More than I thought
Shalla my swan
Shalla the eternal torch
I extinguished by my lack of thought
I ignored her and murdered her
I left her to rot
My dear Shalla
The fault is mine
My beast
My carnage
My venom
My toxin
My death
My hate
My fears
My tears
My neglections of true horrors
My ignorance brought me your death
