The Legend of The Heartsick Lover

Written by Chris Zeid

​

Have you heard The Legend of The Heartsick Lover?

A woman that befell a ghastly horror

Half-moon night was when her lover discovered the red color

In death without her lover was true torture

 

She wished not evanesce into the beyond

Her place, she knew, was with her darling

But she made a mistake and into an in-between she became bond

Now all alone and in sorrow from their parting

 

Aches of reuniting, her lover she must seek

Blonde hair patchy and bloodstained

Left eye bloodshot, right eye dangling against her cheek

A gruesome sight unable to be wholly explained

 

Proclaim you are her lover lying in wait

She just may hearken

But when she finds you are not, there shall be a horrific fate

Stealing you into abyss to the close of your curtain

 

Birthed from this tale, a game came to be

Testing their chances as they play

Calling her name while sending their plea

Wondering what may happen from what they say

 

Dare you partake?
