There was a lamp, **dark and Black,** It was rubbed, polished The wrong way, Ash filled Smoke filled the room, and it Said a wish is to be made. A desire, a thrill, an **untimely End** to those who have done you ill. "I will grant you these three" "Do what you wish" And I will always fulfil. Wish one, thought through, Motioned with a but a word Spoken to this wisp of form Eyes red as burning bright coal. This wish is to bring a loved one back "I wish for her to be in my arms" "To sleep in my bed once" Eyes awoken a silhouette greets As sheets pulled back. Horror absorbed before the eyes As gaunt features meet tears And screams and cries. "I wanted her back, in my arms" "You did not wish her alive" For she was already dead. And isn't Death the lonest sleep of your lives. "Details my sir are the moments of thought" You wished for her in your grasp, But she was buried long after life had left. "I wish" "I wish" Don't think, lips spit words in Anger and anguish. And what happened Now may happen again. "I wish to see her, alive" "Breathing upon my skin" Wishing is said so it is done, a Haze of moments , and once again The smile so loved, a moment relived And soon to end. "What have you done" "What trickery has your black mist once again done" You wished for a moment, where Breathe and life were one, you Never said a, Date, Time, Moments Are many too infinite to  count, you didn't stipulate Which one where life breathed out. And with that steel crunched, this moment Relived, Third wish, final count. I Wish for her to be the survivor I wish to trade my life so hers doesn't Go without. and the car filled **black Ash** as with each wish had done. "Your wish is my command" "Fair well friend" As a third wish played out, Moments Were passing as life choked out, I saw her escape the wreckage, Life for a life given with out doubt. But a black lamp is as evil as it gets, For his last moment in life, his Beloved ran for help, only to be Taken under the wheels of a van, Black lamps INC Was the sign on the back, A tear fell, as the writing read out "The devil is in the details" "You should always think things out" She had survived the accident, My life given without a doubt. But what I hadn't said how long My loves life moments, years, its the Details that will get you, now not Only one life lost but two now fading out.

The Black Lamp
