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.
