At odds with all
she closed the door.
No one could hear her call
as she fell even more.
She lay battered and beaten
with the last tear on her face.
She was cursed and smitten
from the whole human race.
Hopeless and all all by herself
she tried to save her tortured soul.
Sorrow was her wealth,
Lonliness was her way to go.
"Why has this happened to me?"
the young woman would cry.
With no answer, she dove into the sea.
All she wanted was to die.
Turned from the light,
she went to end her life.
No more could she fight,
or stay bottled up inside.
But, even the sea refused
to carry out her plan.
Upon her heart was left a bruise
as she was tossed back onto the land.
As she lay upon the sand,
she caught a glare.
She went to make a stand,
yet, nothing was there.
Then she was embraced
in a stranger's arms.
Her pain was erased
and she felt no more harm.
He gave her a new life
and swore his love to her.
Together in the endless night,
their love will forever endure.
