Poem
Mercy Sought, Justice Sadly Given! The scent of your spirit announced your love nightly a whisper of sweetness with a hint of sexiness lightly No visual needs to precede your comforting lovely gift just a kind word from you gently my heart uplifts Those beautiful nights that gave we our precious all should have never led to such a blue and tragic fall Lay the mistake upon my arrogance and stubborn pride I foolishly sought your breath taking beauty to hide! Jealousy is a vicious and dark angel sent to take away love true and the sweetness of happiness the live long day! I sought precious time to amend my silly and unhappy mistake as you sailed across forever high upon the "no forgiveness lake"! Now I live in a dark pit filled with a lost and lovely dream as another enjoys your nights and makes your sexy love steam Is there no reprieve from this unearthly hell I arrogantly made? from a stupid hand of romantic deceit I like a fool played? As I seek a gentle mercy that I know I do not truly deserve grant this one sweet mercy and your love I forever serve! Send away my sincere and repentant request will doom my life As I seek love's forgiveness and your hand as my beautiful wife! Rewritten from memory of a letter I onced sent to a fine beautiful lady just too damn good for the extremely wild young fool I once was! Original composition was well over 30 years ago. Destroyed by a jealous lover many years later!! This offering is very close but sadly time's erosion has not allowed me to recreate it perfectly now. That brilliant lady rightly refused to forgive me my trespass! As I look back I see her wisdom..... Robert L..
