i dream of shitty motel rooms my daughter is missing so i help the other wandering children in the shadows a young boy clings to my skirt another ghost attaches to me drains me we are all vampires my shadow aura grows i will be like them just another apparition that haunts orpheus sings his heartbreak song i am Demeter i am Persephone i am Hades while i write on this cold winter night i watch in the black window sadness becomes its own entity my arms open when it punctures my heart he whispers in my ear that i was born for this we fade in the dark i hold a snake by its head before it swallows its own tail i give it a kiss we melt into one i can't tell the difference between this beginning this end we howl like dogs while the moon hides behind the clouds i am medusa in a moonless night try to cut off my head before you turn you to stone watch my garden of statues so still how brave you are see my eyes glow red with revenge with sadness i weep when you are a statue but you are stone cold and don't notice
