In Sheol

Lover
Yes the love you evoke
The heart you wove
Spirit you broke

Shadow am I
Go to the Witch of Endor

In Sheol
my soul
yes my love
darkness unfolds

In Sheol
one weepeth dust
wind blows cold

Feeling is lost
struggle to breathe
seas are tossed

Was I dead my lover?
yes I believe so
the shroud my cover

You arose from death
shined love on me
I am resurrected 
was blind now I see...

well done, somehow Ken, I feel this comes from true emotions. I honestly feel you gave up to quick and blinded your own way. perhaps you are scared and you feel you are not grabbing her attention enough. Believing she broke your spirit, can be a mutual feeling. I felt like this towards a girl who shined me out of the dark. I would feel broken every time she would not contact. it is I who drove her away. all I can do now is thank her. the title drew me in. great one. DX

Hi Dom, Thanks for the comment. Yes I admit this depicts a dark moment I was feeling one night..The concept of Sheol from Hebrew thought and Saul seeking the help of the Witch of Endor seem to fit..Thanks for the visit. Regards, Ken
