A tale.... of love and tragedy....

There once was a young man, young and lively he was,
full of spirit and love to give.
And a women, there was,
she was as glorious as the moon and the stars!
The young man,
stood in awe of her beauty,
her radiance.

Longing,
to catch the attention of such a fair maiden.
Dreaming of only her whilst he slept,
and thoughts of her dancing in his head as he
labored his days away.
Never daring to even imagine himself being good enough
for the fair maiden.

One day,
mid june on a beautiful summers eve,
the young maiden approached this young man.
A glimmer of hope,
shown in the mans eyes as bright as the burning sun.
And so it passed, the young man,
started courting this fair maiden.

And as time passed,
the young couple started spending more and more time together,
They were like to love birds,
perched in the branches of a crape myrtle in full bloom.
So majestic and befitting for one another.

and so some time passed,
living happily and in love.

But it was not long before work became scarce,
and so the young man decided to join the army....

to provide a life of ease and comfort for the one he loved,
and so he went for training,
he was strong and smart.
Training was easy,
he rather enjoyed it.


....but alas....
all good things must come to an end.

By messenger came tales of horror,

The one this man loved and went away for,
to provide a better life for.

Was with child,
Not this fine young mans child,
but a vagrants,
a man of no morals!

This young man knew not what to do,
a fortnight after recieving news of his wifes disloyalty,
injury befell this young man,
and the army no longer had need of him.
So he traveled back home,
in hopes to forgive the women he loved and raise the child as his own,
....the woman he gave his heart to...
the woman he had devoted himself to
this woman he gave up everything for.

She took his love,
she took his loyalty,
and she threw it in his face,
spitting on it and laughing,


forever crippling this man,

he trys to forget,
He trys to let it go
and to move on,
