And the angels wept for her
She who gave the stars their shine
She who kept the storms in line
She who gave the gems their luster
All the angels wept for her

And the shadows wept for her
She who sang for all the ******
She for whom the church bells clanged
She whose face was just a blur
All the shadows wept for her

And the rainclouds wept for her
She who walked on air and grace
She who knew not sword nor mace
She whose thoughts were all a stir
All the rainclouds wept for her

And the angels wept for her
She who is no longer here
She whose voice you’ll never hear
She whose name is now a slur
All the angels wept for her

Never forget
The whisper of a thousand stars courses through your veins
Open your eyes and embrace the memories you lost long ago
Are you dreaming?

Never forget
The roar of a thousand oceans rages in your mind
Clench your fists and speak your words as if they are the truth
Are you dreaming?

Never forget
The peace of a thousand sunsets sings in your heart
Raise your hands and smile against the fading light
Are you dreaming?

Never forget
You are not dreaming.
Yet what would you do if you were?

When every inhale brings pins down my throat
And every exhale leaves needles in my gut
I have to ask myself
How is this worth it?

When the unseen hand takes a shard of flint
And strikes it against my sandpaper heart
I have to ask myself
How is this worth it?

When the inside of my soul is stretched and scratched
And my smile starts cracking with the weight of lies
I have to ask myself
How is this worth it?

When I gave you the key to my mind's palace
And you let it clatter to the ground from your hand
I have to ask myself
How is this worth it?

When every metallic clang from the key
Urges another demon to add another lock
I have to ask myself
How is this worth it?

When the demon I live with is face to face with me
And the smile of satisfaction stretches his face
I am not convinced
That this is worth it.
