No More Chances

 

Blue crescent moons

Made up her eyes

A long flowing mane

Silky black night

 

Diamond Like tears drops

Falling from her eyes

Like the spectacular shooting star

Streaking across the sky

 

Just as rare as that shooting star

Her tears seemed to be

So all the worse I felt knowing

These were caused by me

 

Oh but for one more chance

To touch that silky mane

Oh but for one more chance

To Speak her Melodious Name

 

That name however I don’t dare

To ever even murmur

For one’s who kill should never name

The ones that they have murdered

 

And murder her I did

Though maybe not by hand

But the words I said that night

Caused her untimely end

 

Oh But for one more chance

To look into her eyes

Oh but for one more chance

To take back all the lies

 

Oh but for one more chance

To hold her yet again

And if I could change the past

I’d take back her cruel end.

This is so powerful and the imagery is bold, dark and startling. Your pain and regret weaves in and out of your words. This piece shook me.

And murder her I did
Though maybe not by hand
But the words I said that night
Caused her untimely end

very sad people regret their actions later, when its too late, you flow well, and a story told of something we have all been party too in one way or another........how many times have we wished for one more chance?
