She stood in the doorway
A tear lingering in her
haunted eyes
She so wanted to tell all the
painful lies
She wanted to let them spill
so she could feel her heart
begin to heal
I threw her a token
A story of my own
to keep the magical spell
from being broken
A half second split wide open
I saw in her
I used to be
A girl hovering in the shadows
on her way to the deadly gallows
A woman in waiting
for the love surrounding me
drenching and cascading
