Smulder

Was it rape, my angel
did him tie you up with lies
did he look deep within you
were his words a distguise

My dear, smuldering flame
re-new the trust you burnt
tell me to be rescued
from the pain you exert

I bruise my tears
with the punch you said
you slept with the devil
using my heart as the bed

Why, oh why my baby,
tell me for my lifes sake
Because I don't what to live (anymore)
drowning in your dirty lake

Choke, cry, and try to reason
nothing will set you free
for all you'll find
is the emptiness you left in me

Daniel...I can feel the pain ozzing from this piece. Very well done.   I know this is not your first piece but it is the first I have had the opportunity to read. Welcome to Passions and please excuse my tardiness. :{




When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shodows deep;

How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face...

William Butler Yeats
