Loneliest Girl

The loneliest girl thinks into herself 
in dreams of gold soliloquy, 
and knows not of her inner grace 
that pours forth light 
and love at the dawning of new day. 

She drinks the nip from fear's chalice, 
drowns in quicksand of ire 
and realises not her soul 
has spurned the decimating dark 
and torches with relentless fire. 

The loneliest girl has deeper feeling 
within the fetters of her heart 
and knows not her sensuality 
that can lay rule to men 
and rend their mind and flesh apart. 

She weeps and feels unloved, alone, 
steeped in quagmires of distress 
and realises not how much 
her inner beauty craves release 
from prison cells of emptiness...
