a lamb to the slaughter

she comes from a world

of puddles and stars.

from a world where

lion and lamb play

innocently, happily together.

a world where she wears

her heart on her sleeve,

and hopes and trusts although

it hurts hurts hurts

every single damn time.

she, the bright eyed lamb,

has been shot, 

been stabbed, been cut up

and bled 'till 

she could no more,

'till she'd drowned

in blood and tears,

reunited with her precious stars

at last.
