A shriek resounding from inside,
Filling up cold deluded transgressions.
Aggressively clawing at a reality unsolicited.
Slowly the burning starts to reach closer to the core,
the final chapter about to unfold into a hollow scream.
Echoing in desperation to be heard for some resolution,
a lament looming over all that was left.

The shuffling of feet against cold marble slowly come to a halt,
and came the realization to what has become now a dream.
It was a rush of rejoice washed over a heated forehead filled with aching sighs.
The undying feeling floats against the surface,
as a reminder to the haunting memory of hope.
The foolish thought of a victory owned against a done deed.

Once more her legs give out as she can feel her body heavy with defeat.
A struggle shows against the creases of her soft tired face.
As if escaping the last fight her lips curve once more into a grin,
cracking slowly and faltering to an emotionless line.
Her lids shut and her head lulls back as she feels the soft breeze against her back.
The final realization of what was to evolve finally hit her ragged frame,
and she let go of the her convictions to shrivel back to her old ways.
