Shears of might, she wielded the blade,

Unveiling wounds in the light's cascade,

A fragile bloom, once vibrant and free,

Now withers, the pain plain to see.

Her touch, a tempest that tore apart,

Leaving scars etched on a fragile heart,

Strength disguised in a delicate touch,

Unmasked the wounds that hurt so much.
