Her voice was a cry through the chambers of a full heart<\/p>\n
Pumping rhythmically its 8 pints of blood<\/p>\n
The sound smooth, soft, gossamer<\/p>\n
Scraping the ears of all those who would listen<\/p>\n
Releasing a tale from the mouths of those she trusted<\/p>\n
A tale many had heard<\/p>\n
Those who heard, all thought they understood<\/p>\n
An epic saga of good versus evil<\/p>\n
Where all that was good was stripped from her<\/p>\n
A tale where she was left the villain<\/p>\n
A thundering scream, ripped from her heaving chest<\/p>\n
An unanswered question, “Why?”<\/p>\n
Starting over…<\/p>\n
Her voice was an echo through the chambers of an empty heart<\/p>\n
Devoid of its 8 pints of blood<\/p>\n
The sound sharp, cutting, angular<\/p>\n
Caressing the ears of those who cared to listen<\/p>\n
Unfolding a story trapped within the depths of her soul<\/p>\n
A story few had heard<\/p>\n
Those who heard, few understood<\/p>\n
A story with no hero, only villains<\/p>\n
No epic tale of good versus evil<\/p>\n
For only evil had left its mark on her<\/p>\n
A soundless scream racking her heaving chest<\/p>\n
An unanswered question, “Why?”<\/p>\n
