who am i?

what am i to say?


i am not a face,

i am not a body,

i am beyond physicality,

i am more.


i am an idea

sheathed in shadows.


and beneath my forest of thoughts,

skin kissed by moonbeams,

and eyes bleeding crystalline tears,

i exist.


i live not in this world,

but a better one;


one where 

cold, caliginous nights 

sing grand songs

of love and lust


and where trees bear home 

to fairies and benevolent spirits.


but, alas,

angels dance

the night into day

and demons reap.


i am mahpiohanzia.
