Macella (The other me)
splat splat splat
the rain hits the window
crying the tears she cant
the clouds pour out her misery
she sits at her vanity
applying her mask
she's dressed in costume
hidden from the world
she loves him
only her words turn to hate
she's used to that
to pain
her misery keeps her company
it starts to pour harder
she puts on her wig
her golden curls in place
she sprays her perfume
masking the smell of her decayed soul
one last thing
she steps through the door
coating herself in glass
the rain soaks into her
but doesnt move a thing
her coating is unbreakable
people stare
in awe and confusion
she looks onward
not a soul approaches
she keeps it that way
alone
sun sets
the sky greys
she's on her walk home
she steps through the door
almost to her room
the door closes
her make up melts to the floor
the rain is relentless
silent and deadly
she sweeps it into the trash
rushes to the bathroom
and stips away her disguise
she runs the water
steaming the mirrors
and steps in
her wig falls to the floor
disolving and running down the drain
gone forever
her shell is left
cracked and hollow
bleeding
splat splat splat
the water hits the bottom
crying tears with her
the rain hits the window
crying the tears she cant
the clouds pour out her misery
she sits at her vanity
applying her mask
she's dressed in costume
hidden from the world
she loves him
only her words turn to hate
she's used to that
to pain
her misery keeps her company
it starts to pour harder
she puts on her wig
her golden curls in place
she sprays her perfume
masking the smell of her decayed soul
one last thing
she steps through the door
coating herself in glass
the rain soaks into her
but doesnt move a thing
her coating is unbreakable
people stare
in awe and confusion
she looks onward
not a soul approaches
she keeps it that way
alone
sun sets
the sky greys
she's on her walk home
she steps through the door
almost to her room
the door closes
her make up melts to the floor
the rain is relentless
silent and deadly
she sweeps it into the trash
rushes to the bathroom
and stips away her disguise
she runs the water
steaming the mirrors
and steps in
her wig falls to the floor
disolving and running down the drain
gone forever
her shell is left
cracked and hollow
bleeding
splat splat splat
the water hits the bottom
crying tears with her
