Dark as the night
the moon in her eyes
and poetry in her veins
all mystery and bold
a warrior and fallen angel
full of pain
an untamed spirit
like a gypsy she roams
letting her dreams guide
the way, finds redemption
in the words, lets them speak
until the loss and the ache
of sorrows are silent
she is home
