These poems just keep coming, can't help it :-) This one is from Clarice's point of view, timing after the movie. Again, I would appreciate reviews!

Free me
I don't have the words to tell how I feel
how could I, when I don't even know it
can these wounds inside me never heal
this pain, this loneliness – I want them to quit
I know I'm young, there's so much to see
although my path is still unfound
can I find it without thee
whose name I dare not say aloud
the life I'm living feels so useless
traitors, fawners, liars around me
I want the truth so my mind can rest
the one who gives it, could you be
together we are the beauty and the beast
which is which, in the end I don't know
in your eyes, in their heat
my true self will be shown
how could I ever say the words
to face the truth and become a whole
you are my blessing and my curse
liberator of my soul
