What the Eye Sees the Heart Cannot Forget

She creeps into the night,
all dressed up in white.

This isn't the first time;
all her nights the same.

On her hand is a white dove,
as she gazes right above.

An image of hope glitters in her eyes,
as a whirlwind blows from the skies.

In this world filled with terror,
she has no sign of fear.

Divinity is manifested right in her heart,
freeing her from any form of hurt.

Everyday she looks at the whole world,
as though it's new in it's mold.

She creeps into the night,
all dressed up in white.

This isn't the first time;
all her nights the same.
