cruelty

you consume my nights and days
glimpses of your face continues to play
i have been your prisoner til today
choice of many paths but not a way

darken my heart tis maiden of my soul
you empty my heart with a plow
beneath tis pulse emptiness grows
darkness falls where it use to glow

morning dew upon the cow grass
little birds chirping in their nest
a romance falling like a fallen crest
only pain and agony remains til last
