Tangled in her web of beauty Drowning in desire Searching for a better life She gets more and more lost within herself Falling, drowning, tumbling down Grasping onto straws of better love Waiting for meaning Holding onto promises of truth She can't see beyond the mists of her desire Falling, turning, lost in life Lashing out against the cage she built Hurting those who care Too proud to pull down the house of lies Too scared to face the truth Falling, crying, afraid to give In the emptyness a child calls Frightened by silence She retreats into a world of dreams Waiting for love Falling, longing, afraid to forgive

Across time and space you touched me Across time and space I reached out for you and something sparked and grew into a steady flame Like the moon my heart will grow full of wonder and then wane and grow empty only to return and glow in fullness again Like the evenstar the bright glow of our trust will shine across time and space

If I were a cat with nine lives to spend... one for each mistake one for each broken heart Would I finally learn? Would I breath the ninth breath out gently happy with who I am? Or would I continue to make the wrong choices, take the wrong steps, say the wrong words... Would life continue to suprise me? Or would I grow bored, would the path be too even, would I long for uncertainty for things unattainable...
