Angel vs. Evil Evil roams my halls Evil keeps me awake at night Not scared of what Evil will do But more scared of what I might Thoughts of Evil And YOU Collide in my brain And tumble out like vengeful words That I've never said in vain An angel used to roam our halls Until Evil swept her away An angel used to tuck me in at night But angels never can stay Yet, Evil still lurks in the corners Too menacing to ignore She is around every bend She is on the other side of your bedroom door Oh, how I miss the angel With the soft brown hair Replaced by the Evil My angel was dismissed with an affair ** This poem is about a girl that is missing her mother. Her mom left because her dad was having an affair and now the "mistress" lives in their house. ** < !signature--> "Do not marry the one that you can live with. Marry the one you cannot live without."

I liked your poem especially the evil mistress metaphor. Ah, love, it stays not still, it moves at will, tempted by the evil thrill. |

I'd say it's time to do some early spring housecleaning! What is that you express in your eyes? It seems to me more than all the words I have read in my life. Walt Whitman |

Ah the wicked stepmother....so sad! Karilea If I whisper, will you listen?... I would rather be silent and write, than speak loudly and be bound. KRJ |
