Lady From Tuscany by Renaissance
He stood with bow in hand as the curtain rose
Thunderous applause
It was a day that she would remember
Eyes staring straight ahead as the music flowed
From his fine thin hands
Lady from Tuscany captivated
Satisfied all his needs
Fed him with desire, held him like a child
Closer than anyone
Legend surrounds him
Fire, obsession
He had a taste for life like no other man
Overwhelming man Leader in time with public approval
Then as his gift took over his torture grew
Lady slipped away
Waits in his shadow watching changes
