A Shameful Entry

Prompt: Dark Desires of a Cold Hearted Lover

Elenore Saga Part: 2

Dear diary, it's me, Roger again
It's May 15th 1853
I know it's been so long since you've heard me sin
But something's happening to me

I've met a fire-haired beauty
That has caused me to stray
She shot the life into me
On this very day

I'm writing this dark confession by candlelight
The horror of my transgressions
On this dark lonely night
I write my bloody confessions

I've committed a terrible sin
And broke a solemn vowel
The Lord knows where my heart has been
And even now

Please forgive me sweet Elenore
My heart and soul was weak
It cuts me to my core
A trembling heart will speak

I must break this off at once with her
To save my sweet Elenore
Emotions began to stir
As I head towards the door
