Deer

Written by Daniel Rubin (2016)

On my journey ahead,

I stumbled upon an ill deer.

Took her to my safe chambers

And breathed life into the dear.

I made her my mistress,

And keeper of the treasure.

Loved her beyond measure.

But oh, she fell melancholic,

Sad, and could not rest.

As her free heart wished only

To feel the breeze of the forest...
