Ezella is restless with nowhere to go and nothing to do....except worry.

Ezella Sings and Dreams.......

I don't have words adequate to explain the sense of relief I felt at the sight of Sir Dragzfuth. My first instinct was to fall into his arms and weep as a child but no that would hardly be appropriate.. So I ushered him up to my room hoping that he brought word of Shane's whereabouts. However it didn't surprise me overly much that he did not.

I stood there speechless as Sir Magan of Dragzfuth kneeled before me pledging upon his knight's honor to find Shane. I wanted to bid him rise that it was hardly appropriate yet he insisted that my heart was fairer than .....sigh.....such honor and nobility. I tried to smile my thanks through a stream of tears......

Why did Baron von Risper's promise not evoke in me the same sense of promise? He is apparently a man of means. I can't help but smile....Risper...'tis a dandy...all talk so I expect nothing from that one except talk. Still it confounds me why that man in the corridor would so venomously assert that Risper is dangerous. Ha! I'll warrant I'd have more to fear from that rouge....dangerous indeed. But I wonder where he keeps himself that one.......

I go to the window and gaze into the street. Could things be more wretched than this? Did I do something to bring this upon myself? Perhaps Magan of Dragzfuth is wrong. Maybe I am innately bad. My skin craws as anger rises within but I know not at whom or what to direct it. I cannot even answer the simple question who is Ezella? Never but memories of the orphanage over yon way.. I gaze upon the hopelessness of the streets before me as I sing my loss and confusion over the wretched state............

I wasn't expecting this
Now everything is destroyed
Underneath us are the nothings
Underneath them is a void
Beyond that void is a place
Where figments from bad dreams are banished
Childhood nightmares all come seeking
And adult logic nearly vanished

Chaos
Inside-down, upside-out

None of this is what I wanted
I truly asked for what I got
Bang the gavel, it's lawlessness
I can't unravel the knot
Half this wretched town is starving
While the other half are bloated
Everybody hates the bastards in power
But their pill is sugar coated

Chaos
Inside-down, upside-out

I didn't need any of this
I feel anxiety in my neck
The consequences now apparent
Feeding back unchecked
Incessant blue in spiral coils
Fingers underneath the skin
Adrenaline, I'm not his mistress

But he always knows just where I've been

Chaos
Inside-down, upside-out

(Lyrics by: Kilby, Wilson-Piper, Koppes and Daugherty , slightly modified by Freddie so it coiuld be sang by a woman)

I close the shutters for I can bear it no longer. Maybe tomorrow will hold a rainbow if I can quiet and get past this night.

Lying down I drift into a fitful sleep.

But then suddenly the landscape is unreal
the sun is golden bright
and low to the horizon.
Is it rising or is it setting?
I stand here barefoot in a meadow
next to a dead tree
but looking around I see
each and all are as such
A dead wind blows
stirring my awareness.
I am the only thing alive here.
What place is this?
In the distance.... a figure
Something warps space
and suddenly he is before me.
He has the same face
Can it be
the one from the opera house corridor.. ?
There is a stillness
a certain calmness
he takes my hand bringing me within his arms.
Then suddenly the landscape is lush green alive.
Birds are singing...
colors more luminious.....
such peace and beauty as I've never known
All surrounds us
Laughing I break for the clear babbling creek
wade into the cool water and
playfully as a child I splash
coolness upon my companion.......
Laughter is like beautiful music
Strong arms lift me onto the ceek bank
We bask and dry in the golden rays of sunlight.
Curling up next to him
my head upon his sholder
nothing matters
not who or what I've been
I drift into peaceful sleep with the thought....
I never want to leave this place
for there be no finer lot............

continued............
