Original DDE™ surrealistic art: “By My Hand” by: rob kistner © 6/3/24
Into darkness I descend
as the hand of grief extends
deliverance called me to this door
she was indeed a faithful wife
in a moment’s mercy I took her life
her final stare I must endure
I pray to God that she may lie
forever with unopened eye
to her — my truest love I swore
may darkness hide my tears
I am haunted — filled with fears
my soul is broken evermore
her innocent voice cries my name
I’ve finally gone insane
it’s the end for me I’m sure
is this really what it seems
or has this been just a dream
but I feel my sorrow soar
I pray I’ve been asleep
in a dream-state dark and deep
please god — let my eyes soon open
let this nightmare spell be broken
and a new sun rise once more
if not — your mercy I implore
