Emily Rose

I was standing there in the silence Watching her from afar.... Far from the blinds of ignorance The tombs, of narrow thought?! A girl I had known many years ago Years afore the darkened one's Had come to maime her life.... Or at least, the sanity of her mind!? Unfortunate this reflection; as I stood there In the silence as I watched; I thought To these the simpler views; perceptions With these painted eyes; the shallow kind.... Caught in this web of perhaps, forever lost?! The damned I thought, as I stood there Amid the silence; the silence; silence Until, the silence talked; ironic I thought As I smiled upon her priceless Soul ~ Knowing the ultimate outcome; befalling the lost!? Carried away, as I watched; while I watched.... ==================================== ...."Emily Rose" *

Sad was she caught up in something like prostitution, illegal drug use, or some other evil out there?..The bug eater was a Bluebird..A beautiful bird that visits my yard in spring and summer...Sara
