She saw no stars,
no fiery orbs of heavenly light.
She saw the twinkles in the sky,
glitter in the black pupils she knew of
--shining shaded thoughts
She saw no moon,
no kind mister smiling silver.
She saw the faint crescent of a
Shadowed smirk and raised brows
--she tried to forget
She saw no rainbows,
no bright colours, no *** of gold.
She saw how the sun loved
the rain it was made to oppose, she saw
--a girl she used to know
She saw rivers but they were of tears,
And flowers but they wilted fast,
And fruits but all they did, was bind her to
The hell that was her past.
She thought of how they all said:
It's okay, he can't get to you anymore,
It's gonna be safe darling, he's not gonna escape,
You'll be fine, I promise.
And she laughed a laugh that spoke of shattered promises and
a scarred existence.
They were wrong, she knew.
He would never go away however much she bled,
However much she sat on her bed and waited
For the darkness to come, but it never did.
So she bled--
Like how he had made her bleed once before.
Some demons of our past just can't be locked out at all.
