Musing to an XOV* Song

Miles checked his electric guitar. For most of the last two months, he had been living alone, and the only thing that helped him stay sane was the vintage guitar in his hand.

He had been calling his wife all night long. Trying to learn much about the progress of her pregnancy. But aside from receiving a text message that she is okay -including the bit of news on their eight-month-old baby inside her- there's not much she could offer. Reminiscing the short time he spent with her in their short marriage was killing him.

He turned the amplifier on and slowly strummed his guitar. Another night coming, another sadness he needed to hurdle. He drank the wine beside him and played with the guitar one of his favorite XOV songs entitled 'Lucifer.'

"I want him to meet his maker.

I used to be a lover; now I'm a hater.

My passion for succeeding is watching him bleed.

Oh Lord, what has become of me?

Once upon a time, I was a fool.
