Black

I am homeward bound Lusty thoughts, for the love I miss It’s a surprise, I am coming ‘round I’m expected two days beyond this Being away, day after day, left a hole Being away, hollowed my soul I rush towards your embrace Already I envision smile, upon your face Desire I now attack My heart, with I, on highway race Your gleam of eye twinkles, inside this nights black Years of unity, love’s solid, sound Closer, skittish, nervousness The home stretch, I’ve now found I accelerate, craving caress Home in sight, on I roll With thoughts of my angel, asleep sole With her in bed, only emptiness occupies my space I will fill that void and hold her grace Never again will our love lack My minds quarrel and love erase I arrive home, it’s silent, black I climb the stairs, feet create no sound As you sleep, your lips, I will kiss A greater beauty walks not, on these grounds Creak open the master door, sudden distress A stranger lies, my loves heart, stole Pain takes my mind, to the gallows pole Stunned by the disgrace Instant horror, rage, I cannot replace A mans breath crawls my baby’s back My love and my girl I debase My world fades to black My breath vanishes, my pain makes no sound I beg for a why? This has come of my happiness Pain in my chest, built a mound I will avenge this My eyes, my mind, my heart, are now coal Two lives for taking become my goal Three counting me, these lives come waste No control, rage in haste This grief will not retract This sinister situation, I will level at face All good, has gone black My emotions, stresses, compound Creation of plan, slick aggressiveness I muffle my screams, my conscience drowned Satan shows face, he wouldn’t miss this I, no longer in control Heed order from the devil Quickly, I spin about face My entry steps, I then retrace A fetch of gasoline before I turn back Fire shall consume their sleeping space Delighting evils’ mind of black She sleeps at peace, under satin sheets, negligée of lace But peace is ’bout to be replaced A match stick comes alive, with a crack Gasoline tossed, upon your lips, in sleep you taste Match tossed, flames dance and light the black

What a nice piece of Chant Royal. perfect. I also wrote one Pyramus-Thisbe but could not post it in one piece as PS allows only 8000 alphabets.
