Embracing His Wrath

The great deceiver picks one
To manipulate and bare his son.

Something goes wrong, she won't have it
So she runs away from his havoc

She refuses to commit to his will
He curses her to the Island Seal

A place to give in to the evil
Where she meets a man named Cecil

The evil one under a mask
To deceive is his ultimate task

Through his eyes she can tell
Looking through unmasking hell

In his furious anger he breaks her neck
Her soul is lifted to her lord ship

Her body is given a second chance
Without recollection of this dance

He places her under angel guards
Marking her under the stars

Her torment will not go unseen
If she goes back she will...scream

I like the journey. Not sure of the outcome or the villian "She refuses to commit to his will" I sugest SUBMIT/commit. And perhaps "as man to her he revels" Cecil? Why? Is it a retelling of a Silky Tale? "In his furious anger he breaks her neck/ Her soul is lifted to her Lord shipWRECK.."He places her under angel guards/ Marking her under the stars" Is this he "lord" or the evil one? Which her is under guard the body or the soul? Light & Love Debbie..too good not to work more on!
