Oedipus

Blood soaks my eyes As I gouge them not to see you Put on my death mask For the drama Oedipus Rex Play the monarch That enticed me With some stagecraft I mistook the Queen and What length I've fallen Just to be with you The theater in Acropolis A drama stage for two Love my accomplice The play is over Yet I'm plagued now with this feeling The passion of love And betrayal Runs hand in hand When our love Makes sacrifices And I know That there is more to life than Taboos and forbidden love Between us The play is not quite over yet My eyes are still bleeding On with the tragedy
