BEHIND EYES

From my chapbook DREAMS 2 just pub. A look at A.E.POE part of my pen name.

BEHIND EYES
I sat down by the shore.
Thinking of POE, and his lost love LENORE.
A heart and life cast into death.
The power of passion upon his breath.
Her soul sent back to me.
A raven to tell me she was free.
Yet, only to torment my heart more.
Her kiss--a word,nevermore,from Lenore.
Pallas a reminder to only tell me.
We kill what we love--only to be free.
I knew my death was upon the floor.
The ravens arrows told me nevermore.
Life drained from my soul that night.
Only left the shell of a body in morbid flight.
Eyes dark from lost loves brand.
Soon nevermore the feel of her hand.
