Marked
by Recceana Valourawynne (reccea@innocent.com)

We're marked
She and I
Indelibly marked
By the same madman
With the same weapon
And each mark
Has left us changed
Physically and mentally
Each mark
Each scar
Is a reminder
Of who we were
What we dreamed of
And all those things
That you can never look back on
Without a hint of bitter to the sweet
Her ravaged back
The half moon on my shoulder
Warped us
Made us grow
Made us leave behind
Our lives
Our futures
The roles we played
The masks we hid behind
Now we have new identities
New names
New lives
But we still sport the marks
Of a madman's power.
