Dark Violin
April 26, 2012
My fear is my talisman
Clinging to my throat
Sparkling as a
Black ruby
Clinging to my throat.
Paranoia is my melody
Screeching in my ears:
Music from my
Dark Violin
Screeching in my ears.
Apprehension is my dance
Flying on tiptoes
Swirls on
Black satin ballet shoes
Flying on tiptoes
Fear is my talisman
Clinging to my throat.
Strangling me
But sparkling as a
Black ruby
Clinging to my throat.
