Odd Man OutA Poem by NightfallTears, Cries, and Sadness.Oh how they burn
These marks on my soul Created by love A thing most divine Your tears Liquid blades Cut deeper than steel Your cries Piercing arrows Find their mark deep in my heart Your sadness A devil Relishing in the fears of your past This demon Donning the cloak of deception Stole your heart He Who deprived it Tortured it Crushed it Tore it to shreds Will hurt you no more For with your liquid blades And your piercing arrows I am armed Oh how my soul cries! You have given me much And I will repay such kindness Tears of joy Cries of Laughter I shall vanquish that which does not belong This beast behind the cloak These marks will forever brand my soul And this soul . . . Belongs . . . to . . . you © 2013 Nightfall |
