Waltz


A fresh young girl-
Innocence, guile-
Dances with the devil she cannot see.
Twirl, twirl faster with the dance
Dazzled by the world
The glitter, the sparkle.
Not realizing the danger,
she dances with darkness.
Twirl, twirl as madness takes you
Turn and face the mirror
the darkness lives inside.
Though innocence destroyed
She is not lost to the darkness
For with the innocence lost comes newfound strength.
Her soul tarnished, but not blackened,
Evil retreats before her,
And light is restored.
