I Sat

I sat down in the stillness the light shining through my head felt the earth shake just across the room I heard the star screaming wishing for dear life the beauty now masked with bruises eyes masked with blood lines I sat down in the darkness the sun warmed my heart my limbs have gone limp just as in the start I smelt the dear from the star wanting to be free the lovely perfume shattered eyeing eternity I stood up against my father the hatred overcame my hand held the knife of freedom just there beneath his frame I cried beneath the star my mother she be bright but when it came to father she needed me for the fight
