new
i screamed openmouthed in terrorwise
link ed to you despite sp ac e
strung like pearls on rope made of
lies
i am
not wondering where you are
closeor far
i sang my sorrowsong already and look over there
is the note against the sky
a bird poised like music on linesofcommunication between you
and me
i am exempt from your pain
tattooed my denial of despair on skinsmoothsilk flash my hope at every
one who glances at my feet
theyve trod many a broken path and been worn down to cracked and bleeding remnants of memory
been there before
been there again
wandering in circleslikestuck
and c u t the ties finally broke the chains
though bound by life we made
and now the screams have vanished and I sing new
love like sweetness on the tongue after bitterhate i am newtoo
and will not coat my heart in nacre to hide the wrong with in
no
i shine like diamonds
