The sky is overcast today
and I am soul alone
I let my emotions fall where they may
So I won’t be so accident prone
Since the last incident turned my heart to stone

The only deity of this menagerie
is trapped in a music box under lock and key
Never do I dare display
The dignity of its symphony

lacerated in innocence
Mortified until she was convinced
Her entire life had lead up to this

Now she strokes tenebrous scars
and only chimes during rainy daze

To grieve in discordant echoes
