the crucifixion of a nameless maiden

i sing a black aria
for a fair maiden on a cross
she hangs, dying, forgotten
when pressed for her name, i'm at a loss
i've slit this maiden's wrists
to beckon merciful death
for it tears my heart to hear the pain
that comes with each ragged breath
i care so much for this maiden
though her name, it still escapes me
it seems rather queer,
for the maiden who hangs here
once meant a great deal to me
her eyes so soft and loving
her body, emaciated, withered, and weak
i speak soothing words, but my calm is belied
by the tears slipping down my cheek
finally, this fair maiden has given up the ghost
she grew far too weak to fight
and though i'm glad that she is finally at peace
my body shakes from Sorrow's might
i finally remembered that fair maiden's name
as i fashioned a noose from this rope
the fair maiden who died
the damsel crucified
was once known by the name of Hope
