A New Hope

What was wrong with me?
It was like a siren
Screaming inside me.

I wasn’t like them
Like a siren in the night
My scream would not fade

I was a banshee
my song flowing in the night
meant for things greater

Than I could ever know…

So there I was sat
on the rooftop in the night
singing my song

For all who would listen…

A lonely banshee
Looking down on everyone
as a protector

For my family…

We were all alone
The creator looked away
I was the one hope

For Humanity…
