Analysis of The loss that cannot be forgiven
Larry Lowry 1959 (Pryor)
There she is at my feet broken like a doll with strings cut. Nothing to do as her body just lays and accuses me with empty eyes not a word is said. She who never said the word No to me. So gentle kind it would break your heart tear your soul. She never demanded she just gave her heart. A true gentle heart laying on the ground silent and limp. I found her nothing to be said just hear me screaming her name and her quiet as the grave. At my feet i can know how sorry i am nothing can be done . Her dead eyes accusing me.
