So you broke into my emails
a nosy bear you are
surprised at what you found there?
how dare you boil with anger.

Ask and you shall receive
ninja in the dark
seeking answers your yellow soul
too weak to speak aloud.

But red are your cheeks
as you slaughter me
with horrid accusations
and empty threats.

Pack your bags and items
storm the stairs with rage
in the end it is your loss
as you sit weeping at your mistake.

Sobs upon the sofa
apologies unjustified
you woke as if all were well again
the price you shall pay comes silent.

Happy now you blew your stack
wounded I lay in bed
you never asked, you stole my trust
what you receive has yet to unfurl.

Quiet at the night wind blows
softly as I breathe
your sin will be dealt with surely
Ask and you shall receive.

As a sword to my belly she broke free from my frame
a life to live freely, I gave her my name.

Through thunder and blood, tears upon joy
we suffered our love over every dumb boy.

Arisen from ashes, a woman she stands
brave as I raised her, no slave to a man.

Yet deep in the battle my own heart was slain
her words cut so deeply, leaving no empty vein.

Her strength turned her icy, her heart of stone
She faces a cruel world, fearless and alone.

My instinct to save her but none shall I do
My love shall go with her, while I remain mute.

For all I have given, one day she may come
to find me quite empty for I am undone.

The lilt of his laughter
the hum of his voice
a gleam in his eyes
as he smiles into my soul.

No words ever spoken
no light shineth down
in darkness we gather
our bodies unite in joy.

By the ring of a bell
my soul gathers warmth
he is craving me deeply
I am swept.
