the tarnished halo
marred by his need for power
lies next to the one he stole
she kneels down in prayer
searching for answers and peace
robbed of her choice to abstain
still toying with sedoka...still don't feel as though I have hit the correct feel of this particular poetic form...but that won't stop me from trying or enjoying the creation process. inspiration for this creation came from Three Word Wednesday. [3WW=>abstain, halo, prayer] First thought that came to mind upon seeing the words was Big & Rich's song Holy Water...so I went with it.
Sad piece.
