In the dark alley, romance died <br />Whimpered softly as the knife was drawn <br />Rested her tired head on the pavement <br />Waiting patiently for death to deliver her <br />From this cruel world <br /> <br />In the dark alley, romance died <br />He sat facing the sky <br />The stars like shimmering fragments <br />Of everything that once was<br /><br />Eric Gallagher<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/in-the-dark-alley-romance-died/
