Horseman and the Girl he loved































I heard a story
back back in time
A rider galloping the street
riding every night
for his beloved
held captive
at the edge of a gun

She knew her lover
is on his way
to her freedom
Well aware of the tragedy
he choose to bargain his life
for the one
gift of life he brought for her
even death can't stop
this lover heart at any cost
until she is free of the chains
he won't rest to catch his breath.

Her heart beats stronger
as hopping horse came closer
"Oh!! He is here!!" She told herself
when she noticed
the armed man standing alert
as he heard the galloping horse too

The man peeked out of his window,
the horseman looked
right at him,
almost a second before
the guilty man chose to hide
"He is coming!!" The man exclaimed
"He is coming" The captive girl exclaimed
Riding like breeze
Rage in his eyes
He will make the sinner bleed
He will bleed himself
He fears none
He only cares for the one.

The armed man pointed
his sniper out of the window
he point towards the horseman
"Jus' one shot and he's gone."
he chuckled to himself
and chew the match stick in his mouth

Tears in her eyes
"He's coming!!"
she exclaimed to herself
"Come closer"
says the man ready with the gun

"I love you my darling
hope you know this"
She closed her eyes before
she said this.
A gun pointing her heart
she chose to shoot at it
before it breaks apart.
A gun shot so loud
it stumbled every creature around
the birds startled and flew
the animals scattered in dread
And the horseman knew
the message loud enough
to communicate.

He had nothin' to lose anymore
nothin' to care about
only revenge in his eyes
For everything he has lost.
The armed man startled
lost the shot he was about to take
not a moment later
the horseman standing right behind him
As he turn to catch his breath
Horseman stared right into his eyes
the man swallowed in fear
raging burning eyes
told the story of his future

Revenge served
but what's gone is gone
whats's done is done
never to come back
only remembered with mourns
and so the story ended.

No one saw the horseman again
no one knows where the dead girl went
We all jus' witnessed
he rode with his beloved
towards the horizon
where sky kissed the earth
and love is safe with sunset.
