No Escape

Posted By Alyse Black from Austin, TX July 11, 2010

She wailed and wept
Her body played 
Like some horrid
Instrument of greif

This wind that weaves
So thoroughly
Through her trees
No escape
No escape
None that she can see

She crawled and crept
Her fingers searched
Like some hungry
Dogs in need of light

Once there they find
No sun or kindness
Through his mind
No escape
No escape
This will never be put right.

This dark that thrives
So heartily
Upon her love
No escape
No escape
And she's too weak to stand and fight
