Story of Abel

Story of Abel

Sweetheart
Has Cain found your name
Written across the backstreets
Tarnished with all the pain 
Bronze eyes look in shame. 
I wonder are we the same 
My love is only so strong that he won't go insane 
Stay close by the waters
The lord will keep thy name 
I don't know if anyone sees you
Crying in the rain
I just watch 
And pray 
Hoping I'll never see your grave 
Your soul as sweet as fruit
Your lips like sunrise 
On a summers day
Oh how I marvel at your ways. 
Even in the olden days
Because of your sweet fragrance 
Cain will see errors in your ways 
Like a broken clay
Dropped to the driveway. 
They will hang you up like ornaments 
To scare the hearts of slaves 
And God knows what they've done 
Your blood cried from the pavement 
Your last breath you have to pay 
Just so Cain can have all
And bury you in graves.

Thank you so much!! I am flattered! And also very thankful that you understood the metaphor. When a lot of my friends read it, they had no idea what I meant at all! Thanks for the comment!
