Vanquished
She lives beyond home
shrouded in loneliness;
hours spent in darkness,
'til daybreak will come.
She smiles and pretends
The world is alright:
Fighting the demons
Her heart still defends.
Long hours spent releasing
Her hoards in the night.
She's burying these fears
With love she's unleashing.
