Poem
at dusk I come upon my lake and sit beneath a shaded tree
with lifeless eyes I gaze at the setting sun, for it is the last one I will ever see
in my arms I cradle a shotgun, loaded with only one shell
the instrument that I shall use, to release me from my endless Hell                                
with utter calm I press the barrel beneath my chin, ready to see if there is truly a God
but then I am halted from my salvation, when from across the lake I hear a sob
my first thought is what has brought this Goddess such pain, tears streaming down her 
cheeks
this creature is of such ethereal beauty, that I am rendered unable to speak
so deep is her despair that she doesn't even notice I am there
still unable to find my voice, all I can do is stare
cerulean eyes, raven tresses
thoughts of blissful cries, and lustful caresses
in those eyes I see a pain that rivals my own
on her wrists, the evidence is shown
but I can see that the scars are far more deep within her heart and mind
whoever has brought this angel such misery only deepens my loathing for mankind
I feel a strange sense of peace, looking at this creature in all her splendor
the embers of longing ignite within me for the first time I can remember
my heart clenches as her tears fall onto the water, the cold wind creating gentle waves
from the agony that radiates off of her, I know that she plans for the lake to be her grave
I wonder if I can save her, pull her from the abyss
a woman who has endured such suffering, deserves nothing other than bliss
as the last rays of the sun vanish, into the water she begins to descend
I stand up and run to her, the shotgun forgotten on the ground
as she disappears beneath the water, I grab her and pull her above the surface
like a comet streaking across my mind, I realize that saving her is my purpose
she looks into my eyes and gasps when she sees her pain reflected
a vestige of hope wells up within her, for she knows she has found a kindred soul
from the pleading desperation in her eyes, I know that I've been trapped
and I never want to escape
