all caught up and nowhere to run
we move in slowly, into that empty room
through that darkened sense of hate filling your eyes
those fatal glances from a rose with thorns, in a dark room
upon the floor lay embers from a fire almost empty of substance
a hasty night to illuminate her eyes, a momentary lapse
capturing time within that very moment, the peak
suddenly, she comes to life
though he cannot see the beauty of what she is
blindness now taking hold of both sight and light
