salvation; part two
redemption

what is love, I asked myself -
a weapon of destruction
I carve my skin with it,
take my heart out -
it hurts.

the breath I take stings,
makes my lungs wheeze out hysterically
as I open my eyes and I
wait for her to be there.

the name, her name is
on the tip of my tongue -
I have been calling her more often than
thinking about the war I caused.

her lips, the ghost of them is
lingering on mine still -
where is she?
where is the sweet taste of my salvation?

in which the Darkling meets Liya again,
but fate is not on their side

or

the new era of salvation begins
