There were dark clouds gathering

In her twisted mind

And she blew at them

But they didn't get blown away

The wind howled, filling her ears

They grabbed at her, tore off her hair

She whispered prayer and chanted mantra

But the storm didn't cease, only got louder

Then she cried a piercing cry

And for a moment, the world was on pause

She thought she had overcome the darkness

But then it hit her more forcefully than before

So she bowed down before the storm

Powdered glass drawing patterns on her soft skin

She let her blood mix with the rain

Felt her soul empty bit by bit

And so when they came to rescue her

All they found was an empty body

They forced in clean air, filled her lungs

But how can a body function

When it has no heart?

So they wept

For the nameless girl

And buried her memories

In the frozen ground

Then they forgot

As they always do

And only remembered when

Another grave was to be filled
