Stranger
November 2, 2012
Not my home but a house
Not daddy but my father
Now my blood's ran dry
Ever since the lights went from your eyes
My once paradise is now my prison
A single white dove now two black ravens
On two gnarled shoulders
Always watchful
Always vengeful
Will the sun ever rise
Will the scars ever fade
Not a daughter
But a stranger

Thank you so much! I'm still really small on here, and no one ever really comments on my work.
