Without a second wasted he scaled the manor wall

And to the balcony hoisted himself, heavy heart and all

Without a thought he dispatched the lone guard by the door

And to his arms the daughter leapt, heedless of the blood and gore

A flash and dull roar sounded, then an endless moment spanned

And the father stood in the doorway, a smoking pistol in his hand

The daughter clutched her chest where a ruby river flowed

Then slackened in her lover’s grip as her heartbeat quickly slowed

The father stared in horror at the thing that he had done

But his grip never faltered as he held onto his gun

The pirate let his dead love go and his grief echoed through the bay

Then burning eyes locked on the father, vowing to make him pay

Like an angry bull he charged and the father fired his gun

Five times he fired and hit his mark, but couldn’t halt the pirate’s run

Strong hands wrapped around his neck and squeezed till his eyes turned misty gray

Then the pirate lay down beside his love and his life gently slipped away
