There was a warning from Him
About her.
the beautiful bliss, now dim
was danger
Fourteen summers left me blind
To its hungry dance.
Life who hates me so kind
Left me in my trance.
First, it showed me its wrath
Slowly it unsheathed.
Second, it took her laugh
Her breath unable to breathe.
Last, it took her mind
With mine in its hand.
But I found a great find
Leaving me only a brand.
Sweet Oedipus you know pain
Your strength reflected in me.
A war it was – with no gain
But a chance to be as can be.
