Singularity

She tries to find where you used to fit

There’s a hole in her self where you were

She carves herself to ribbons in fear

She can’t move on until she finds

Where you moved out.

She pulls herself to pieces

Breaks her own heart

Chained to the rock

Eagle to her own Prometheus

Giver of stolen fire.

But the sky is alight anew

Casting shadows in her sight

And now she must choose

The shadows of destitute comfort

Or the bringer of new fire.

She is frozen on the horizon

The line where the light ends

And the factions spin at her centre

Deepest shadows frame her

The light forms the edge.

She is drawn in by unnamed forces

Through too many veils

To where the maiden can call

For a knight to take her hand

Save her from herself.
