She didn't want to be saved by a knight in shining armor
Nor to be treated like a princess full of glamour
She didn't want to be lost at the woods
Nor to be found again — only to lose
Because in the midst of earsplitting noises
Are demons screaming with tiny voices
She wanted to feel silence
She wanted to feel the void
Even if it means nothing to feel at all.
