Ravensong Poetry And Writing Blog by Donovan Baldwin

Echoes from silent walls... as if it mattered,

That she and I had passed this way,

And, parted at the dawn of day.

One hurried night of thoughtless pleasure,

While taken to its coarsest measure,

Within my heart a bright light gleamed,

It had been more than what it seemed.

Touched, oh yes touched deeply by,

The lady who had caught my eye,

Who I had claimed so casually,

Yet, tossed aside so soon to be...

And yet, 'twas I was caught within,

As net of love rose from our sin,

And as I heard the first bell toll,

She left ME there, a joke so droll.

As I lay, unbelieving and heartsore,

She left my world and shut the door,

And let the darkness in my soul,

Yes, on ME a joke so droll.
