• At the end of the beginning
    Halfway through the whole
    In the unfinished room
    I wait

    Always empty
    Lonely, sad
    My saviors come to meet their death
    Without them I’d die
    With them I’m cursed

    The last of my kind
    Though they know it not
    Both captor and victim
    I hold the key

    My bridal veil is cast askew
    Remnants of a golden day,
    Quickly cast in shadow

    To soon for death
    To long in life
    I watch the skies
    To see my fate

    Each day a new attempt
    To find the final end
    My tattered sleeves
    Can’t hide these marks
    My eyes betray the rest
