I followed the curve of a winding road, not knowing where I was going. The subtle breeze that sent a chill, let me know, the wind was blowing. I brushed away the strands of hair, which fell across my face. Wandered down the sandy path which led me to this place. Stopping for a moment, I felt a rush, much colder than before. I heard water splashing, in the distance, as it lapped against the shore. The road twisted on, unending, as the path grew longer still. I didn’t think I’d make it, but it gave me such a thrill. So journey on, I must, to find what there may be. It’s waiting for me, patiently. I call it destiny.

The melody in her head, ever so clear

Memories, of him, she once held dear

Musical pieces, her heart, so shattered

Lyrics of love, now torn up and tattered

He left her with nothing, but ivory keys

Her soul filled with nothing, but ebony

Out of tune songs, that play in her head

The words; he’d forgotten, he ever said

George would always get a bit cranky

When the women around were skanky

So he got him some soap

Washed them down, with a grope

Indulging in sheer hanky panky

She is the moonlight

A goddess, seeking worship

In the dark of night

As her eyes reflect, the azure sky

And time just seems to tumble by

She’s still a child, so full of wonder

That no man, ever, shall put asunder

Let her breathe, inhale the land

Reaching up, to the heavens, grand

Watching, as the clouds roam free

Then disappear beyond the tree

She sighs, at the beauty, shown above

And marvels, at the cooing, of a dove

She prays for man, may he find kindness

That God remove, his human blindness

And let him see, what she does see

Her Heaven, this, she knows to be

As through the day, she lives her dreams

For her God knows, it is she, he’ll redeem
