A Tale of Two Rustless Races

Look a distance
For you own existence 
A tale of two Lustful races
Would cause one to go many places
Here we start our lovely beginning 
Here thy lay a graceful maiden
Waken her not
For thou has been caught
An evil witchery upon her heart
Thus caused her mind to depart
There he knelt besides his love
One should always look above
Fallen far down to thy head
Grounds the blood forth to spread
Enrich the floor with days old death
Child born not long ago
To which many did not know
There the infant lay alone
Till one day thou found and shown 
Mornings and nights would then pass
Years of many would go by
Remember the past
She has grown so tall
Reddened cheeks would cause her shy
Walk alone she did her most
She was not one to boast
There she sat with solitude 
Many thought thou was rude
Beauty was her age to be
Most males would not disagree
Upon her thoughts she thought so dreary 
But she always seemed so cheery 
At that night we speak of now
One would wonder how
He gave her that one vow
They seemed to love together
This would be there last forever
 Evil circles followed them
Looking for one to condemn
There the lover took his wife
To protect her from this strife
Laid her down upon the soil
Then thy stood up to toil 
He looked the evil in the eye
He wasn’t one to defy
Then the evil struck his side
This would cause him to subside 
Evil then pounced upon her soul
Wanting only one to control
She pushed away thy evil thing
She grabbed a knife and took a swing
There the evil lay to rest
She saw her lover and became depressed
She placed the knife against her chest
Thrust upon her heavy heart
Murder followed them with hate
Killing one another’s soul mate
Oh the pain of life’s dear agony
