Jessy Liz - The Complexities of Simplicity

In the darkness it’s clear as day-
A silver silhouette:
A body lying motionless
In a pool of deep regret.

The shadow of what once had been;
Of a rose with twisted thorns…
A fallen angel stranded here
She’s Innocent no more.

On this night, she hid alone
And whispered a quiet goodbye.
She hung her head in the silence
Tears brimming her eyes- but did not cry.

She took each knife with bitter pride-
And never said a word.
To even reconsider now
Would surely be absurd.

In the darkness it’s clear as day-
A silver silhouette.
The shadow of what once had been
And of a fate…
Never met.
