Free... to just be
I oft times pondered
what waited me
would true love
be my destiny
you came along
'n won my heart
a puppeteer
with evil plot
~ ~ ~
The night was young
'n so were we
whispered words
on passions breeze
Kisses sweet
romance was new
sweet days of yore
just, me and you
'Neath the stars
that glowed above
vowed 'n promised
pledged true love
Something happened
went awry
lost myself
within our sighs
Battered, beaten
betrayed by fate
lies, deception
words of hate
Suffocated
in your grasp
chains were tightened
held me back
Daggers pierced
caused heart to bleed
haunting visions
restless sleep
I sit 'n ponder
wonder why
wind still whispers
lullabies
When'er the skies
are shaded blue
charades of thought
bounce back to you
and when the stars
are shining bright
I still remember
blissful nights
Clouds 'n thunder
pounding rain
waltz with hurt
unwanted pain
music plays
but out of tune
there is no smile
on man in moon
You took my heart
played me the fool
shattered dreams
broke every rule
I listened to
your lover's chant
believed in you
'n our romance
Her kiss of death
'n devilish grin
caressed your mind
'til heart gave in
Now she has you
crying tears
wounded, crawling
wrapped in fear
Pleading, begging
filled with hurt
choking back
your just desserts
Head held tight
'gainst demons breast
your pleas unheard
within her quest
~ ~ ~
So now I place
a wilted rose
'pon your grave
and so it goes
Days of yore
now dead, deceased
no tears of sadness
calm, relief
Skies are blue
stars shining bright
heart rejoices
with delight
Free at last
to start anew
life with purpose
without you
(just my muse folks...:))
