The Black Window
Bewildered by the light mixed in with dark
Conditioned her complexion rather fair
If cupid had a bow to touch her heart
I would receive a love I pierced to dare
Per say the heart only wants what it wants
So I began to back away with steps
But everytime I came to cross her smile
I only dreamed of kisses to her lips
Passing the night upon the morning hour
I took a chance with knee unto the floor
To you my love let us perchance romance
To my surprise she opened up her door
Her room's decor was natures vintage art
A path of plants processing sweet perfume
Somewhat of heaven this angelic room
And she the angel that my thoughts assume
We spoke until the sun became the moon
Mesmerized by the values that we shared
Her words were soft that sat beside my soul
Or shall I say it seemed our souls were paired
If liberty is love forevermore
Then give me liberty or give me death
She kissed me with a knife inside my heart
And took away my mortal life of breath
Breathless beside a morbid black window
Here lays the man who loved a black widow
hope, love, fear, despair
