Fly high to the sky won't you come inside to die. But if I may, if I might, give you just a little fright? 'Cause in my heart there lies a place where spectres howl and demons chase, it is the blackest of the places any man has ever known. so I ask you now, yellow tape in tow, will you let inhibitions go? Cross the police line, break the law see that which no other saw, and listen to my muse. Bruised is the face of her, strangly did this blow occur. For she did laugh at his little joke and playfully took a poke that hit too close to home. Ventured 'cross the line that sent his anger, sped by wine, raging hard as stone. It was just in jest, none would have guessed it would be the start of exodus. Her life would find a close. Who knows what happened next, he might have thrown the bottle lest, he really lose his temper. Next his backhand struck, such crushing force, she's reeling backwards throught the door no more does she vision light, not a chance for her to fight. Blacked out, he kicks her down, reveling in that fleshy sound of murdering one's kin. Sin draped across the floor, the elixer held on him no more as he woke lying next to death. It smiled at him for he had been the consummate ladies gentleman until that fateful night of terror where inhibitions fell and spirits rose and there was heated exchange of blows. Cause in his heart there lies a place where spectres howl and demons chase, it is the blackest of the places, all men intimately know. |

Beowulf...from a womans perspective this is probaly one of the most terrifying acts she will ever experience...the turning of a loved one into a stranger. a possible title...The Other Side of Love never say never |
