Vows in the Shadow

Shadows whisper under the moonlight,

A cowboy's vow in the cold midnight.

Eyes dark as the forgotten graves,

He rides the wind, defying fate's waves.

Dust on his boots, scars on his soul,

Chasing shadows where the restless go.

Lady Death, hear his plea,

A deal for vengeance, set him free.

Underneath the blackened sky,

He bargains with the night’s own cry.

Fading life, but spirit bold,

In Death's hands, his story told.

Gothic cowboy, with a haunted heart,

Dancing with the darkness, playing his part.

Swear to the shadows, seal the curse,

Revenge's fire, deep in his verse.

Whiskey tears and a ghostly smile,

He bets his soul, just for a while.

Through the shadows, through the fears,

Rides the cowboy, dark as tears.

Now he rides into the night,

Victim of his own spite,

In the arms of Lady Death,

He finds his final breath.
