Veiled Love -Part Two-

But within the nothing, something new Within the absence, a voice grew Whispering at first just my name It was my voice that echoed through Demanding I rise from my pain Absolving me of all my shame Insisting I remember the truth That I am stronger than you With my voice also came the witch's one true name A reflection revealed in time That every scar of hers was too mine with that, the witch's veil fell to the floor her words I could hear once more For into my ears, they poured From you, he will feed And with his greed, I will breed And from my womb his dreams I will bore Not a version of me, but a shell A woman to familiar with hell It was she who wore the cost Of a love disguising, rot Creating from her a hallowed husk My destiny she soon would foretell into cluttered ears, the words unfortunately fell A warning unheard and soon lost My eyes are opened, unlocked A clearer picture of you I have found There's was never an us Just you and your self lust my heart I picked off the ground as I gathered my strength No longer afraid With the missing piece of myself I'm rebound stealthy and clever was your plan To steal all the strength that I had Then consume whole My very soul The only thing left that I have The only thing truly mine But I see you now, my love And enough is enough Out of your custom-built hell, I will climb

What a powerful and moving write this is. Absolutely loved reading this and i think many can feel the emotions flowing throughout this. I really felt the lines “ There's was never an us Just you and your self lust my heart I picked off the ground as I gathered my strength No longer afraid With the missing piece of myself I'm rebound” just impeccable! And soul hitting. Pleasure reading this
