A Broken Victory

A Broken Victory


A victory found to be hollow and not worth a dime
for in destroying your spirit I seem to have lost mine
Justice sometimes comes upon us so very swift 
like a well earned and shocking little gift

I found bountiful benefit from mine
for a guiding light it did also shine
As a path it did so desperately send me on
far away from a hateful and wicked throne

One of us had to finally give
so both of us could finally live
Would have been better had it been you
your heart knows it and I do too. --------Robert L.
