wind and flight. silver swift and impersonal crimson
save me save me save me- didn't you know? no one has ever heard you
child child child. take one step and then another- never sane and never lost- this is the way

they have only ever seen red
red is blood
red is power
red is legacy

don't look. don't look
sorry. so sorry
turn away child, can't you see?
that one is broken already

red fire and endless chasms: the world lives on-
and I know the axis of calamity
save me save me save me


save me save me
save me, still I cried
save me, I hoped in the darkest of shadows
still here and not yet gone

save me, they raged
still here and not yet gone
save me!
twisted and torn.
caricatures of children and imitations of humanity.
never quite real.

save me? here and here.
take a step then another
every face I see myself
I find my twin in the mirror's eyes
all that I am: made again and again in a child's eyes

this is rage.

this is silence.

this is fear.

this is what it means to be forgotten

this is what it means for harsh reality to bed a childhood

this is defiance

this is what it is to be alone

this is what it is to be branded
