The Bloodthirsty Witch

A witch murders her lover. They can't prove anything, though. There's not a speck of blood on her finger.

The grave where we sleep,
The crow, that does weep,
The gate, for she yawns,
Is where the point rose dawn.

Staring from the east,
It unleashes a rabid beast,
Hungering for the blood,
Dripping in the mud,
A body hanging above,
One, sold out to love.


She was a trickster,
Lacking all her fear,
As she shot the man,
Life gave her a hand,
Leading her out, away,
She'll escape today,
Leaving the sky broken,
Hiding her face, sin.

I'll pay you back when I get a chance.

I like this, we trust ourselves to love at a risk. It does seem that the heartbreaker walks away freely, especially the fearless ones.

Isn't it sad, though? Thank you, Laura. It was nice to wake up to your review.

[Laura Kate]

It is sad. However, I think there is always a lesson to be learned from sad experiences. As unfair as it all is, it is up to the heartbroken to understand what this lesson was for them, so that it won't repeat.
