You came into my world Like a nocturnal dream Willing to be my pawn With the innocence of a young fawn Stealthily, right from the start I soothed your broken heart With words as sweet sounding As the wind going through a set of chimes I made you mine After I got you to do my bidding I stripped you of your courage and dignity I worked your body and your mind Like a clock works a pendulum I told you could have your freedom You looked at me through tear filled eyes And asked why? Here is my epitaph May it forever stay on your mind I am the guy your mother warned you about |

I think you are off the track. Good words, wrong intentions |

Allan~ Hmmmmmm ! 'I soothed your broken heart With words as sweet sounding As the wind going through a set of chimes' ^That's pretty. 'After I got you to do my bidding I stripped you of your courage and dignity' ^That's not so nice ... but sometimes true. 'Here is my epitaph May it forever stay on your mind I am the guy your mother warned you about' ^Sounds like someone's gonna be pushing-up-daisies for a long time. Interesting layer of phrases. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Just_another_fe..thank you ..yes I do understand what you are saying Daniel.. I am on track with what I wanted to say. It is easy for someone to play with anothers heart and then just leave. Marge...thank you for your kind words..I tried to go in different directions with this. Just to make you wonder |

Moonchild....I am sorry if I pulled the wrong strings. I was in a dark mood last night when I wrote this. Kind of turned how I was feeling around. I have had a lot of different responses from it. Thank you for reading it and replying |

Alan~ this reminds me of my ex-husband....my parents tried to warn me, but at 20, I knew everything, of course.......this is very real, no one should be upset by it, and I doubt it's a personal reflection. Great writing! -SEA |
