Downfall hits the window pane.
She pines for the Bleeding Heart.
Grey and crumpled,
but she sees delight in the vibrant.
Staring at the summit in the dark
under the warm blanket.
Counting numbers doesn't help—
music comes instead.
"The lightning could strike me!"
She fights in her battle—
To ride to the enchanted land.
