the crucifixion of a wayward soul:
a tribute to tori amos




with open hands
i never knew i possesed these gifts
until all that was left was crushed rosepetals
single tormented heart
and i brushed away the rosepetals
but found only a weathered tombstone
with an engraved celtic cross
my heart was pinned to
and there was the grave of my soul
