Sweat Drop

When she was a little girl
scared and
very very little
she learned

Punishment will fix
Fear is good, necessary
Crying makes it worse

When she was a little girl
scared and
very very little
she sided with eve
Thinking everything would be simpler
If it had been her fault

I am eve
temptress, monster, war
hidden in strong and clean and sweet

Born to be water
that fills pots
She yearns to be fire
To be free to hate the things she loves

I am eve
temptress, monster, war.

She was born of fire
to be water
and deserves no aloe
for her wounds

Carlisdania Mendoza is an MS3 who loves the beach, squirrels, and fairness in that order. She has a flare for the melodramatic caused at least partially by her early exposure to telenovelas.
