The Final Scene

My last tear

Wiped away memory

Of undiluted treachery

As I sit and watch the premier 

Of the forbidden scene

Unfolding before my brown eyes

That would soon later be my demise

As I just turned nineteen

She entered my life

With her baby blue’s

Causing my heart to bruise

I still feel it in the afterlife

The next scene so taboo

I knew it was wrong to crave her

To allow my soul to stir

By then I was twenty-two

Love blossomed in a barren place

It weathered many disasters

She evolved into being my master

This is when I fell from grace

We whisper to each other in the dark

The dark is where we lay

Where we do forbidden things that betray

Things that leave exclamation marks!

The last and final scene before

She takes my soul and runs

As my heart beats like a broken drum

I was just twenty-four

The final scene closes

But the story is incomplete

My knees hit the earth in defeat

For eternity, I lie on a bed of thorned roses.
