A Man Shadowed
I beguile you!
And you beguile me!
A man shadowed
by a mysterious past.
A man beyond
redemption
but wanting love
forevermore.
Searching...
Yearning...
Seeking...
Yet not finding.
Till one day seeing
death is near.
Realization occurs
that love and redemption
Can Not be earned.
Only freely given.
And in that moment
he is humbled
beyond belief.

I recently watched this movie with a couple of friends. A friend of mine had wanted to do a movie night as part of her birthday month. We absolutely loved this movie. This poem was inspired by the "highway man" portrayed in this historical film.
