A Misery Shared

I feel the chill of her marble hands gripping tight around my heart, She breathes pain and spits misery upon all who surround her. 
Her eyes like hollow vessels like a vase abandoned by its flowers. 
Her soul is lost within time and picked clean by the vultures of sorrow. 
She embraces me. 
She accepts me.
She is me. 
I am her.
