Our Lady Without A Face 
By Poet Dell Anne Raye

Her story, ghastly though it may be. 
She tells for all to see. 
A price one shall pay. 
Whence a man wishes to take your life away. 

Upon love's Bridled wings she did soar. 
Until one day he did come.
A bullet with her name written upon. 
Failed attempt to end her life he did make. 

Whence she did become, 
Our lady without a face. 
Her story she does tell without shame. 
Lives she attempts to save. 
Never for fame. 

She stood with conviction.
Upon the courts rendition. 
Telling her horrific nightmare. 
Never turning from his stare. 

He attempted to end her life.
Insuring his place in hell's fires.
