Dark L

Begone! I shout outrageous
Why shall you stalk me, curse or bliss?
Pronounced you dead, yet I am jealous
Begone, I beg you on my knees.

And black, like Raven upon Pallas,
Your eyes impale me: "Nevermore"

But why? Say what is your desire?
Reveal the reason of your trying
Make me tormented. Is it funny?
Say, say, please, break the silence!

The whisper echoes: "Nevermore"

Then maybe mind of your still shares
The dreams I buried when refused,
Then know, I've never ceased to cherish
The hope that bore those lies of yours

Abyss in those nine ghastly letters
And thrice they weave in - "Nevermore"

You walked along and past me blankly,
And smile of yours no feelings bore
You're still the same - beguiling, cranky
Go forth and hide your twisted core

I can't brake out from your shadow,
The one I hated and adored,
It crawls across my sleepless bedding,
Yet I am glad that your dark biddings
Shall remain sealed forevermore.
