Before you

 

Before you.

++++++++

Before

you ,

a sad me crept dark whiskey 

Alleys

and cursed the 

Heavens Blue. 

(Because I had never 

walked their valleys.) 

But now I'm a freed 

Slave, 

lost in your smiling face, 

and no longer haunted 

By 

The Grave! 

(because you showed me 

Love's True Grace.)
