The death of the damsel (Free verse) by luzrheroguy
Its fatal, she said its no use I've caught the virus written on your lips And he looked down at her knew that this was finished These battles fought in vain, and she said Come again... Come again... Don't you dare let this be the end Come again... Come again... He clutched her close to his chest And he sang to the dying damsel The words, I'm sorry we can't be together But I'm afraid that I have failed you in these endevors Tonight you're leaving this town forever She coughed and said, Come again... Come to me, and let this be the end Lay your head in my lap, as the cold sets in I'm not finished yet, Come again... Don't you dare let this be the end He looked at her, but he knew That it was down to now or never The darkness set in as her cuts were still bleeding He watched her knowing that she would not rise And he lied ever so sweetly, to the both of them He sang the words, I'll come again, and again So long as this is not the end Don't you dare let this be the ending She closed her eyes, and kissed him softly Before life left her form He held her tightly and to himself he swore This is not the ending... I will come again Don't you dare call this the ending I will come again... No this is not the end He slid the mask back over his eyes Laid her still form down across the rooftop And bid his fallen lover farwell
