Poem for Captain Butler

by Soulful Ensemble   Nov 30, 2008


Ashley Wilkes Booth talks his forsaken dreams
And then Scarlet Butler has an epiphany
She no longer cares for cash and such
But Captain Butler has ran away after suffering so much
Thinking his lover Scarlet loves another man's touch.

Captain Butler was wrong, and its too late
He's gone to Charleston, " back where I belong".
Scarlet is crying and her tears aren't fake
She's finally in love after so long.

Captain Butler, still jealous of Ashley Wilkes Booth
Has already ran away to forget all of his youth
While Scarlet is still yelling "its really true"
That she's in love with Captain Butler even if it makes her blue.

But who knows how the story ends?
And who remembers how it began?
Its 4 hours long, my friends
And I just don't give a damn.
