Baa Baa Black Sheep

by Sean Dohr   Jul 10, 2006


Baa baa black sheep deep within my soul,
clouded by the soot, emitted by the coal.
Hidden in the darkness, lies my hopeless fate,
yet a pheonix lights the way, to my final date.

It's fire is my passion, taking me away,
awaiting what I long for, judgement day.
Ever since you left, I've been dying inside,
bottling up emotions, I wish I didn't hide.

I knew I didn't need you, even from the start,
yet I let you break, my already fragile heart.
I'm still lost without you and your nefarious ways.
you've left me empty-handed, in a precarious place.

    I actually like that it fits into that rhythm. i just wouldn't have wanted to be sung that when i was a kid ; )

    You know how hard it is to read this and not go by the tempo/song of the kid's song?? Sadly, it all fits it too, which is totally distracting from the meaning of the poem :P lol

    Well done! I really enjoy this. It's so unique from the beginning to the end and all the way back to the eye catching title.
    Take care and keep it up~Holly
