Queen of the Night

The heart is a buried place,
A place buried in a pulse,
A pulse that's hiding, singing
Words I can't quite hear--

I sang as a gift
To a faceless audience.
I sang to defy the fates.
I sang to be a villain,

A low-born rustic
Determined to elevate
My fears and desires.

I am not magic enough
To defy myself.
If I could, I would.
