This Curse By Henry James He sits in his room Startled by what he sees Not knowing what to think Not knowing what to believe The trembling he feels Strickins pain inside He can't run from his fears He has no where to hide 'What is this curse that has fallen on me' 'What did I learn' What did I see He knows so little He suffers so much He hears every whisper He feels every touch Finally he gives in To whatever he's done The game still continues But no one has fun

This Curse By Henry James
He sits in his room
Startled by what he sees Not knowing what to think Not knowing what to believe
The trembling he feels Strickins pain inside
He can't run from his fears He has no where to hide
'What is this curse
that has fallen on me' 'What did I learn' What did I see
He knows so little
He suffers so much He hears every whisper He feels every touch
Finally he gives in
To whatever he's done The game still continues
But no one has fun
