I Gaze ‘pon the water’s face
searching for some thing
to return my soul to grace.
Tears flowing down sting
open wounds, gaping for all
to see. I’m searching
for the meaning of it all.
Show me, I’m willing.

Then my vision becomes clear.
And the water in
turn mirrored, and I can hear
faint whispers within.
I prepare for the fate which
awaits, lips pursed.
Life, Death, I do not care which
awaits for I’m cursed.

A visage ‘fore me appears
and the mirror wanes
as its replaced by my fear.
My courage it drains.
Shut my eyes, the moment nears.
I await heavens
wrath won’dring what beast ‘pon me peers
and nothing happens….

Timid, I open my eyes
and before me stood
a goddess, to my surprise.
Her will seemed good.
I watched her dance there upon
the waves of blue and
wished, in her arms to be drawn
So I reached my hand
To touch of the waters spawn
But she’d not stay and
As my hand reached hers, was gone.

There I sat ‘pon water’s edge
and tears came to my
eyes. They filled and poured o’er ledge.
Heart stuck ‘mid a sigh.
She’d been so close, and yet so
very far away.
Ne’er forget the love, I’d known
and my loss that day.

As I wept, and thought sure my
tender heart would break
An image stood nearby my
reflection in the lake.
I stood, turned and found I faced
my goddess who stood
by my side, in perfect place.

Throughout my trial she’d stood true
and it was then that I knew
The gods had given me her
long ago as an answer
to my question.
LOVE shall conquer sin.

In time, God began to feel
guilt. His rejection and silence led
to my sacrificial kill.
I was not to blame when Abel bled.
But, his word was final, he
could not revoke it now, for if he'll
be wrong it would bring on the
undoing of both heaven and hell.
And so, he said nothing of
it, instead he began to devise
a plan to display his love
and forgiveness, but I saw his lies
for what they were, and I had
no sorrow left for anyone but
Abel, my kin, whose death had
come from me, the misguided parrot...

Aphrodite herself came
to me. With ashen skin and flowing
onyx locks that form a frame
for the cherubic portrait lying
upon her face. She took me
up in her arms and cradled me, I
was had, and then she gave me
her name, Lilith she said. And so I
began to tell her mine, yet
before I could open my lips she
softly let her finger set
upon them and then whispered to me
not to speak, she already
knew. She placed my head in the alcove
of her neck and kissed me
upon mine, right then I fell in love.

I was cast down from the stars
and ensnared by Terra's weedy veins
Amazed I could fall so far
in such a miniscule length of time
comatose for an eon
I laid still, a prisoner of mind
waiting for the light of dawn
to light the path leading to my kind
But the day light never came,
I existed in eternal night
Seems forever I remained
drowned by self pity, a sorry sight.
With time I became restless,
and soon my conscience began to wake
to evaluate the mess
of me which I had begun to make.
At last my hands were willed to
move, and they covered my face in shame.
Tears flowed from my eyes of blue
as I realised what I had became.

SLEEPING BEAUTY
I picked her up late last night
And took her home with me
Shoulda seen us, quite the sight
My little bride and me.

She got cold in the car
And slept for most the way
The drive was far
When we arrived, I asked her if she’d stay.

She did not speak,
But silently nodded in reply.
I picked her up cause she looked weak,
And carried her inside.

I laid her down upon the couch
And fetched some candle light.
She looked so frail, could only slouch.
Her skin was ashen white.

I told my love that she look’d
Like she could use a bite to eat.
So I went, prepared to cook
For her a special treat.

I sure am glad it’s thoughts that count
Cause she couldn’t keep it down.
We tried and tried in great amount
But the meal ended on her gown.

I took her out of her dress
And helped her in the tub.
She decided she would rest
And wanted me to scrub.

I turned around
And let her go, getting the shampoo.
She slipped under, nearly drowned
I thought my love was through.



I pulled her out
Of the bath, saved her just in time
She didn’t cry, didn’t shout
So I knew that she’d be fine.

You never know just what you’ve got
Until it’s almost done
I learned that night I had a lot
I knew she was the one.

I held her tight, and then I said
I think it’s time for bed
She agreed, but did not speak, she only nods her head.

We laid as one upon the bed
On which I write right now.
On that night I be wed
And consummate our vows.

When it was done, we’d both laid still
And I’d asked if she’d had fun.
She did not speak, but I trust one day she will
Because I know that she’s the one.

She looked ill and very taxed
Was quiet as a bone.
So I said to her, my dear relax
I’m gonna bring you home.

The drive was long
And once again she slept for most the way.
I never felt like I belong
So much as I did that day.

When we arrived I kissed her brow and carried her to sleep
And tucked her in, within her bed, that’s buried six feet deep.
