Phantom Poetry

A Cry for Peace

I wake each day

To find myself this place

I keep growing colder.

I sit and play

Sorrow fills the space

That makes me feel older

I dream each night

Of her great light

And her beauty like no other

I've lost the fight

To gain the right

To be loved by some other.

What is this beast,

This deformity,

That's tearing me down?

It's had its feast

It's ecstasy

But it never slows down.

Will someone please

Sing with me

This song of redemption

I need the peace

And harmony

That comes with reinvention.

I'm going to reinvent myself.
