Damsel Movie vs Real Cast with Name

Dark Nights POEM: TASHA LIM Hands outstretched towards the sky To block the sun that blinded my eyes But alas, my hands - too small for the task And thus the heat continued to melt my mask. Afraid of the light - that I am For always I have been nothing but damned; Too long in the dark I have been In the shadows where I am Queen. A kingdom I rule with logic and reason Never falling for the change of seasons Blocking any light that sneaks through the cracks Maintaining the peace that came after the wreck. Yet as heat continues to melt my mask I find that day has already turned to dusk And myself - marveling at the stars of the night Wondering if the nights always had a little light.
