She saw love as a savior

From loneliness and fear

She saw love as a home,

A home of those who never rest

No one told her that it’s a trap

When you sow love as something else

Then just a passing feeling.

She wondered what love was in the dark nights

Nights covered in the darkness of painful thoughts.

She searched a meaning in her dusty books

But her library couldn’t give an answer

‘Cause every story ended up with death.

Neither the stars ‘cause they are only memories

And the past didn’t teach her what love is

But what running away is.

Until when... something new appeared

Familiar, hidden in dark skin...

She craved

A dark skin... a sign of passion

And the scheme began.
