One Brief Moment

She was caught, she fought, in evils knot
Betrayed, ever grazed, in a moments rage
Broken, soaked in, cruel words spoken
Forgotten, locked in, hatreds cage...

She bleeds, mind leaves, a soul deceived
So she stands, she stumbles, she breaks, she falls
She cries, she dies, exposed she lies
Losing, moving, to barely a crawl...

She remains, stained, from one moments game
She's blind, can only find, what's left behind
There's tears, she fears, faces reappear
In the hope, the cure, the war's over in time...

She dreams, she screams, agony it seems
Takes, she wakes, from terrors place
Breathing, reaching, for something worth keeping
Sighs, strives, for a kinder face...

The pain, the rain, both the same
Just a little self worth left to gain
Needs a season, a reason, to change these days
For in one brief moment life seemed to slip away...

Sauni:)The Only Time I See The Sun Is When I'm Within That Vanilla Breeze.The Only Time I'm One With The Sun Is When He Shelters Me From The Rain. L.S
