    Troubled Spirit.

She walks the lonely halls at will.
A heavy sigh precedes her keep.
And all who see her shiver still;
Such terror present in their sleep.

Her slender frame, a perfect form.
A dress of silken pink, enthralls.
With heavy axe in hand, her scorn,
Is camouflaged upon the walls.

History, they sometimes speak,
Of a time long past, this lonely bride;
When life was merely at its peak,
Fearing death, she was sent to hide.

An axe her only close defence.
A seedy room became her home.
But idle time was dull, and hence;
She left her space at night to roam.

And so he found her, and embraced,
A pattern she had come to know.
With the mighty axe he took her life;
Destroyed her breath, her heart and soul.

She walks the halls at night in rage.
Her solemn quest, revenge she seeks.
A shadow now, her earthen cage,
And a haunting tale, of one who weeps.
