You stood like a tower of bones,
as they cunningly plucked a tendon
to rejoice your collapse into shambles
Time of strength&glory,
all snatched from a life too short
You swayed like a silk paper in the wind,
as they craftily struck their blades
to exult in your tearing into wedges
Smiles most deserved in life,
all pocketed by the antagonists
Your beauty
to be defended, to be withstanding,
is the best of vengeance
from the thieves who tried
to rule your emotions
Your wisdom
to be guarded, to be nourished,
is the sweetest revenge
from the thieves who tried
to seize your spirit
