Tears dripping from his eyes | B |
- | |
The rays flashed on the water | C |
The sand gave way beneath him | D |
His life was always like this | E |
No one was ever there for him | D |
Nor will anyone be | F |
- | |
The tears tried to wash away | G |
The sadness from his heart | H |
Which lay broken under a heap of sand | I |
His life was always like this | E |
Whenever misery came almost all times | J |
They piled up on each other | C |
- | |
He watched the Sun dip below the horizon | K |
And he saw his survival chances to sink too | L |
Slowly rose the Moon | M |
But her attitude seemed a bit odd | N |
Instead of bringing hope | O |
She drowned him even more | P |
Hours drifted like minutes | Q |
The Moon went on shining with its angelic aura | R |
Pouring silver glitters on his blue pupils | S |
Those looked back as if to say | G |
Why are you here now | T |
Why do you remind me of those days | U |
Tears now started to rain | V |
Causing him to shut them close | W |
- | |
But then he heard a voice | X |
Speaking in his mind | Y |
Faint very faint But it's there | Z |
A girl it's a girl's voice | X |
She whispers Come to me | F |
She repeats that over and over again | A2 |
Making him drunk | B2 |
With that treacherous melodious voice | X |
- | |
The boy opens his eyes | B |
He sees standing a few yards | C2 |
Away from him | D |
A dark silhouette of a girl | D2 |
- | |
The edge of her skirt twirls in the wind | Y |
Her auburn hair | Z |
Flowing along the breeze | E2 |
A sweet feeling creeps in his heart | H |
- | |
Her voice fill up the air | Z |
Follow me | F |
She towards him and the boy | F2 |
Got stunned | G2 |
- | |
Wow thought the boy | F2 |
What a gorgeous face | H2 |
The perfect curvy nose | I2 |
The intoxicating lilac eyes | B |
Which makes his memory fuzzy | F |
And above all | J2 |
That heart melting smile | K2 |
- | |
The girl giggled and started to walk away | G |
The boy began to follow | L2 |
Just like she had said | M2 |
He picked up pace and then started running | N2 |
But could not close the gap between them | O2 |
- | |
But then she stopped and so did he | F |
She turned towards him | D |
He moved forward slowly | F |
Her face glistened in the moonlight | P2 |
His pulse raced | Q2 |
She let him come closer until he stopped | R2 |
Now she walked and came even closer | C |
Unti their faces were only inches apart | H |
- | |
But then he realized | S2 |
Where was her shadow | L2 |
Fear crept in his heart | H |
Yet the boy did not move | T2 |
His body swayed in a frightful bliss | E |
His heart went on devouring rich wine | U2 |
- | |
The girl now understood that her true identity | F |
Was no longer a secret | V2 |
She smiled and kept her soft hands | W2 |
On his shoulders | X2 |
She pulled him even closer | C |
And said in a whisper | C |
I have watched over you many nights | Y2 |
Coming here with the girl you broke up with | Z2 |
But don't worry now you have me | F |
Then she kissed him for a long time | A3 |
Longer than the others before him | D |
- | |
She then pulled him apart | H |
From her from his body and from this world | B3 |
She walked away skipping in joy | F2 |
Even winking once at the Moon | M |
- | |
In the morning two sailors | X2 |
Happened to walk past the same spot | C3 |
The place where the girl and the boy had last met | D3 |
The younger of the two hunched over the body | F |
Before finally saying It's HER | C |
What a terrible beauty she is | E3 |
Let his soul rest in peace | F3 |
- | |
For many the journey ends here | G3 |
But it was not so for this young man | H3 |
For when the clock struck twelve | I3 |
The very next night the Boy sat up | J3 |
Oh no not the body | F |
Only his soul | K3 |
He stood there waiting for Her | C |
- | |
A minute later he spotted Her at a distance | L3 |
And gave Her a call | J2 |
- | |
Bewilderment filled Her eyes | B |
As they were drawn closer | C |
- | |
This time the boy went closer | C |
Both came very close | W |
And he whispered Follow me | F |
He grabbed her hand and off they went | M3 |
Running like horses set free | F |
Both of them were happy at heart | H |
So the smile came naturally | F |
- | |
In the morning those same two men | A2 |
Walked past the same spot | C3 |
The younger one said | M2 |
I heard two voices yesterday | G |
A boy and a girl | D2 |
Did you too | L |
The older one nodded | N3 |
- | |
They were walking | N2 |
When surprised knocked at them | O2 |
They saw the boy's body lying there | Z |
Just like they had seen | O3 |
But with a smile on his lips | P3 |
Both of them gazed | Q3 |
Finally the older one looked up at the ocean | K |
The Curse is now finally over | C |
This lad is Her partner now | T |
May they rest in peace | F3 |
Saying this they went away | G |
- | |
Even now my narration does not end | R3 |
For nature had other plans | S3 |
- | |
At night He stood there | Z |
All alone | A |
Two nights ago he was here only | F |
But crying And now with a smile | K2 |
- | |
Maybe the locals didn't know | L2 |
But He was The Curse now | T |
The creature of the Dark | T3 |
Now is His time to breathe in | U3 |
Fear in the hearts of men | A2 |
- | |
This is The Curse that cycles eternally | F |
THE CURSE OF LOVE | V3 |
