6.1.07

Gaze past the air, into loss, into loss
Never again, I’m sure, will you be she
For fated mistakes, innocence the cost

The blood-red sight and memory, you toss
While in hell you watch for eternity
Gaze past the air, into loss, into loss

Poor girl, you stood still while the stars did cross
Virgin ripped from the earth; seeds into seed
For fated mistakes, innocence the cost

In escape, temptation bid you to pause
And I weep for your eyes that cannot weep
Gaze past the air, into loss, into loss

And when your skin, raked by the demon’s claws
Your blood-straight arms reached for heaven to flee
For fated mistakes, innocence the cost

Your view, poignant fog, cast by Satan’s laws
The light dims as you sit, enthroned as queen
Gaze past the air, into loss, into loss
For fated mistakes, innocence the cost


Poem #1 = finished. Help me edit, though, if anything needs to be fixed.
