The Lady's Decision
Caught in the glittering eye of gold
the ring turned round within her fingers
pale in comparison, the wind whipped
against her face in the tussles of fire
red
break away
It whispered while the sea
caressed brutally upon the rocks
below, the long green reed grasses
upon the bluff of her standing
wisped around her fawn legs
break away
The water churned in their
midnight tumult, the folds of
her dress dancing violently
with no gaiety, even the silks
as they swished together taunted
in her ear
break away
So the ring flew from her fingers
and into the abyss it tumbles
while she imagined some gapping
kraken swallowed it up and her
stomach lurched, her cheeks stained
salty, but even her heart steadily said
break away
