Defiance
From the Lake,
Sunlight hurts my
Eyes, causing them to
Drip tears and blood.
*
Yet, I do not care
Fore I feel again.
*
Lavender blossoms
Fragrance the air that
I inhale deeply, and my
Throat closes at its intrusion.
*
However, I smell them
Clean and bright without water.
*
My flesh burns from
Lack of heat upon my
Skin for ages, the water
Acted as my shield.
*
Still, my soul feels
Alive as my body sizzles.
*
I have waited an
Eon in darkness. Now, I
Walk briefly in a light that
Is Not You.
*
A sudden weight seems lifted as I
Die, no longer a slave to you,
My Ardor.
