The Wicked Man

Bookmark

Once Upon a Midnight sky 

A rendezvous between you and I 

 

A secret plan that was never to be told

Was let out and all the others now know 

 

I wear his mark that he had given me

Your eyes show there is no sympathy

 

Under the moon as the maiden cries 

Under the stone he lays there and dies 

 

No one wept and no one seeked

The truth of why we two had to meet 

 

There is a wicked man in the town you see 

So wicked he will get you after me

 

Once it’s all said and done

 This wicked man will run and run and run

    1. Nice rhythm ‘n flow, Fia 🎶

      With a Poe-esque like ambiience, you’ve creatively darkened the page with both spot-on and soft rhymes, spilt blood-shivering imagery … ever-so pleasing to the poet’s ear and mind’s-eye.

      Your perfect title and artwork choices set the stage well for what’s to come, and that classic intro couplet surely awakens even the most passive reader’s interest.

      “Once Upon a Midnight sky
      A rendezvous between you and I”

      Good stuff, Lady-Poet …
      you’re such a pleasure to share with! ⁓ Rascal🖌
