Princess of the Plains

Kill Me Swiftly

Princess of the Plains

Princess, sweet angel dove
How quickly you've shed your wings

You've backed me into a corner

Made me face my blackness
Once I shone as the northern star

Now my life is mess

Scattered, strewn about like confetti
If only you never met me

We would both be living free

Free from chaotic fantasy

You saw me with her...
and I saw the flame in your eyes

Darling, I never was untrue

Darling, you must realize

The sun will disappear and the moon will entice...
the wildness within
I was meant to be your angel

But, my eyes were gouged by sin

I walked groping

Making my way in the dark

Somewhere along the way
I have rekindled that spark

Now here I am...
I am wanting you back

Don't kill me with your eyes

Do not kill me slow

Do not kill me when my eyes drown 
Be swift and have mercy, love

And when you look above

My love will still be there

Hello MICHAEL!!
You really do write a lot about women and their effect on you and your relationships......and you do it with a style uniquely your own ~

                                    ~ "I was meant to be your angel
                                        But, my eyes were gouged by sin
                                        I walked, groping
                                        Making my way back in the dark...

Thank you, Tony. Yes you're right. Women have a powerful effect on me. My heart goes numb and soft so fast. We might be strong on the outside, but inside we're just lovesick boys. Peace, brother poet 👍
