... Shame falls like petals Onto your pillow again… Writhing in anger Need fills you up from within… There’s no one to take the blame now You stumbled your way here somehow. But Queens rise from ashes With scars on their hearts. The fear in you scratches Doubt tears you apart. So you put on your armor Like a diamond Seraphim. You know they can’t break you… You were already broken. Grief comes like a shadow Filling your footsteps with pain… Why would they betray you? They knew you were destined to win… There’s no one to take your hand now You tripped at the threshold somehow. But Queens rise from ashes When the world falls apart. Your innocence smashes Against their frozen hearts. So you put on your armor Like a diamond Seraphim. You know they can’t break you… You wish they could break through! But no one can save you…when You’re already broken. ©vera_anne_wolf

Broken Seraphim
... Shame falls like petals Onto your pillow again… Writhing in anger Need fills you up from within… There’s no one to take the blame now You stumbled your way here somehow. But Queens rise from ashes With scars on their hearts. The fear in you scratches Doubt tears you apart. So you put on your armor Like a diamond Seraphim. You know they can’t break you… You were already broken. Grief comes like a shadow Filling your footsteps with pain… Why would they betray you? They knew you were destined to win… There’s no one to take your hand now You tripped at the threshold somehow. But Queens rise from ashes When the world falls apart. Your innocence smashes Against their frozen hearts. So you put on your armor Like a diamond Seraphim. You know they can’t break you… You wish they could break through! But no one can save you…when You’re already broken. ©vera_anne_wolf
