Reaping Whatever Dark Gods Decreed

[SIZE=5][B]Reaping Whatever Dark Gods Decreed[/B][/SIZE] Did we dare too much thus reap the bitter wind? Dark, greedy days creep by, our lives grown far apart Is this how such treasured and deep love dares to end? Like cast away trash in a street beggar's cart? Did we fail, reaping whatever dark Gods decreed? Penny a ton, garbage flowing into a dump? Nay my love! We both found our lost, bitter seed. Fallen from a well-worn, broken treeless stump! Why did we abandon the blazing heat of our lust? Step into dark regions to satisfy morbid dreams. We are thus decayed, our metal eaten with rust. Joined Fates, destined to be on separate teams! Yet my love, all you had to do was believe in me. We both sharing truth from the same golden tree. R.J.
