Victoria Anderson-Throop Poet Couplet

Inexorable Fate

INEXORABLE FATE

                                                Inexorable fate

                                               --all joy is lost

                                               Vanquished am I 

                                               Sea winds tossed.


                                      No wave of death will set me free--


                                       Guilt-forced breath has ravaged  me.


                                       My heart's delight I've sacrificed.


                                          For dire neglect I paid a price.


                                        The lust of Fame ate precious time.


                                               I sacrificed my love sublime.


                                      Inexorable fate--pure Joy has fled.


                                    Vanquished is hope--my Love lies dead.
