Wretched Spirit
~ I once held a woman in my heart,
She was so beautiful, and yet so tragic,
Lo’, do I still weep for her, when the tears come,
~O, Wretched spirit that I am,
I once took innocence by mine hand,
For, my Lovely One is just like me,
Save she is beautiful- in varying degrees
And so I insulted her
To ruin what I might have be
And sank back down
into rotted earth
- In lamentations of my birth –
`~,,~`

Author's Note
Imagine, if you can
There I was… layin in bed,
-next, to mine wife-
half awake, driftin away, into sleep
wonderin why, she is with me~
when these words
kept hauntin my head
not letting me release.
complete surrender unto sleep,
So awake I flew
An wrote the haunting words down
lest I forget by mine mornins crown
