There was a man who sailed shadowy seas
he drifted into her dreams one October eve
singing a song under the harvest moon
he wore his heart on his poe-ish sleeve
through the misty haze, he stood alone
holding a wilted rose, sadness in his eyes
the waves roared causing a commotion
she reached for him, under a starless sky
the turn of darkness took her by surprise
words fell painfully from moonlit lips
he sang the ballad of a haunting love
she traced his image with her fingertips
in the early morn' exactly half past three
a portal of light, escapes the grey clouds
suddenly, disappearing in an autumn mist
howling winds carry their final vowels
linking with dVerse
writing dark ballads
