after severing her wings
they urge her to fly,
after blemishing her truth
they don't want her to lie,

although the scars on her body
are well shown..
the unhealed wounds inside
remains unknown,

neither have will to live
nor have the courage to die,
although the pain is evident
she has lost the strength to cry;

with a tainted soul
and a neglected heart,
she walks with pride
without falling apart;

she had bared her teeth
and sharpened her claw;
while guarding her chastity,
she herself became the flaw.
