she is left alone after he is gone
She awoke with such a fright
tonight
she has no fight
she closes her eyes
wait for the pain
the thunder and lightening
flashes on the pane
in her mind she sees only red
in her innocence she barricades her bed
her clothes discarded with a toss of his hands
tonight he forgets one day he’ll be a man
she is left alone after he has gone
she opens her eyes and surveys the wrong
a lifetimes it seems lost in a moment
a decade of dreams shredded and spent
tonight is not the beginning nor the end
just a moment that scattered all the angels he sent
she awoke in such a fright
professing it to be a dream and not the demon that flies at night.
