pseudo-princess-pleasure-seekers

A Pale Collection of Emptiness

One day I wish to know, 
as the scars of devils do, 
when your eyes, married to the auburn fox, 
will remove their pantheon of petrified ghosts

A frivolous soul I'd always been
a quarter of this world I'd seen
yet the universe felt strikingly adrift
