Words quietly spoken beneath his breath Heard as a whisper to her ears Taking his hand, wraping in hers They walked the gnarled dark woods The night is upon them No longer can they see What is ahead The darkness encircles every corner of every tree. Her arm starts to shake He calms her with his whispers Now lower than before. The sound of distant footsteps Echo in their ears Then as soon as they came They seemed to disapeer. Walking Not seeing Where would this un taken path lead? They stopped then, listening again for the evil, and realized it was time, time for them to feed. He grabbed hold of her arm And shunned away the evil that came to do harm She whimpered and cried Softly with as much effort as she had And he whispered words of comfort Louder now, like a prayer. The light would never come now They both knew they went to far Into the woods, the evil woods Where they planned to give their lives But also wanted to keep their love forever Without the sacrifice To die. Together they held eachother Lost in their own world and un reachable depths Waiting until the spirit keeper Came to collect their souls Came to collect, and inflict upon them, death |

Very nice... Love the imagery used in this one. I was walking through those woods in my mind as I read this ------------------ Life is what you make of it... Not what you let it be [This message has been edited by ThUnDeRkYsS (edited 11-28-1999).] |

Oh, very intricate piece here...very revealing. To find forever in love would be worth dying for to many, I believe. Beautifully done, Joy. Michael |
