Act V. Unbinded and Torn

XII. So Beautiful and Pure

You were so beautiful and pure in my mind
It makes my heart hurt
Yet all that faded away with the reality
of what you truly are
in this deepened earth
My hope is
the monster inside you
Will metamorphosis into a
seashell
white dove
And you'll find someone truly to love
Fly out into the beaming blue,
open,
summer sky
As you gain perspective
While drifting out into the world

Yet still thinking of your soft
princess body
In another man's arms
Violated by his calloused
ape hands
Crushes my coal heart
into a diamond
Irregardless of if I have moved on from your prison
