She bowed before her porcelain throne Queen of twisted sickness Deceit prisms cradling between her clavicles Her marigold eyes swimming in it flood
Her honeycomb heart dripping With sweet tasting diamonds Floating in the middle of her ocean belly
A moon growing within
She played with the cadence of her pulsing blood Her liquid skin melting inside lava worlds Her Italian tongue dipped in silver language Her life divided into minerals Spilling inside the Sky's water
Lady Light with her body Embroidered into golden and turquoise thread Stitched inside glowing stars Mornings stuck to her lips Like sunset lipstick
While shadows braid sunshine into her hair
"There are spirals in my throat as I bend myself from out of my pupils into this life."
She whispers to the shadows.
Her words melting inside the sandy wall.
"Reality hurts as much as it heals You have to unfold yourself from the inkwells of your spine Listen to the desert wind as it will lead you to its streams."
Replied the shadows
Their patterns dancing above the candlelight
Lady Light sighed Her thoughts rhythmic against her mind
"There is a trail I need to follow I want to capture peace and love Like dreams in a dream-catcher I want to have the treasures from off the edge of the sunrise Oh how I wish to have the colors of the sky and sun."
The shadows became still amidst the tilting light Their form advancing; detaching from the walls chains
"You have to unwound the darkness From your heart and stitch in its place sea pearls replace the scales of your memory with forgiveness jewels When others began to see the painting of your life Let the grays lighten into color Let it become an inspiration leading others toward good ground."
The shadows voices turned into psalms A whisper of a smile shone on Lady Light's lips She turned to thank the misty figures But they no longer were graffiti on the wall
They stood before her; wings outstretched Seven Angels Unchained Free Only because Lady Light finally grew wings From within her heart
