Oh! The days
and the nights
spent fighting
this inner fight.
She Paradox,
Nitroglycerin
poured into a box
of crystal so thin…
About to burst,
ready to blow…
slaying in a flash
any standing foe
foolish enough to
misjudge her force,
blinded by her deep
sorrow, of course!
But her fears fed
her fire, and her fire
dried her tears, and
the more she suffered
the higher held her shields!
She Paradox,
Nitroglycerin
poured in a box
of crystal so thin…
Not sure yet if the
clock is ticking, or
if the hardening glass
will end up salvaging.
Wow! π
