The girl who wears Signoria

Has crimson on her lips.

Her hair scents with December rain,

Tenderly, brushing your cheek.

 

The girl who wears Signoria

Has cuts on her wrist.

Under her white, creased dress hem,

hides scarlet scars to her ankles.

 

The girl who wears Signoria

Has a knot on her throat.

It was by the name Victor,

That she used to be called.
