A poem that I wrote a little while ago. |
The shadows are looming And soon will come the night I know that I shouldn't give up hope But I can barely remember the light How could I have trusted him? I could have avoided it all Love is often said to be a blessing But it has lead to my greatest downfall It was in the middle of summer that I met him In but an instant I soon fell He had such beautiful eyes Oh, the stories they could tell Not a month after we met He asked me to marry him, and I soon jumped at the chance If only I had known that with the devil I was having a dance He took me to a far off land Our wedding I had hoped would be the best My first night away from home Was the night of my last peaceful rest I woke up to darkness And found that our love was but a lie He and some friends used me as a slave All I could think or say then was "why?" In the morning and afternoon they would often beat me I had no chose but to slave away What they did to me when night fell Is something that I would rather not say It went on like this for a while Until, while I was contemplating my bad luck I had at last met my end And was met with a fatal struck The meanest among my captors A big bloke by the name of Jeff He dealt me many a nasty blow Until I could only let out one last breath Not too long afterwards I felt a sudden fright Because for the first time in a long while I caught a glimpse of light As I made my way towards the light I suddenly felt such glee For, after spending so much time in bondage I was finally free |
