As a girl, I dreamed I was a goddess,

Clothed in white and gold.

Who danced among the midnight clouds,

A sight so clear and bold.

But when I tripped and fell back down,

I realized who I am,

From god to girl is such a drop,

I feared it was my end.

Life with you began so sweetly,

Until you changed your heart,

But now looking back upon that time,

It was me who fell apart.

I never thought I’d live this life,

But now it’s all I own.

As a girl I dreamed of guys and friends,

Now I dream alone.

My only friends in times of hate,

Is the blood I cry,

And the presence of the darkness,

In the shade I hide.

I once thought the world could never,

Make me hurt this much.

But when I scratch, cut, burn or bite,

I feel the shadow’s touch.
