Crimes Past

To whit to be caught between two brothers and become the sport of many others She kept her heart from loving true but not from the damage passing through Oh twice spent the beauties coin did deliberate vengence to purloin thought knowingly did enter door in spite she cast them to the floor Though twas for couple it's own collusion the device and trap it's own illusion the crimes waylaid doth carry to the grave to curse ones soul as fearful and not brave Twas the story carried in her mind her face to others she wished were blind and with ones sight to look upon her heart to know in violence was her start She thought those sins would ever last or to shake the paths of her past in her fears her heart down cast she did not know to forgiveness ask Unable to differentiate between love and need or if womans desire was only greed If man looks upon her with his smile is he looking for love or just another trial She asks those questions to this day must there be violence to graveyard pay for many men have forced their way in their behavior did have no say COPYRIGHT © 2009 C Michael Miller via Duboff Law Group LLC
