Interesting lines you have written, appears she got what she deserved. This is a good poem but could be better with a little edit. I would recomment a review of comma placement as well as removing several of the "and" there are five in the first thriteen lines.

This is unique and creative, I like the unusual forma and imagery you've used. The line below really says it all about this woman. Nice work!

WOW! LOVE THIS LINE!! *She puts the rose on her lover's grave
Even though he is still a living and breathing man.*

Dear Justin,

I kept wondering if this white lady was evil or good throughout the poem. I guess she is neither but is a victim of Satan forever doomed to lie in her grave.

Warm regards,

Winslow

This poem has good emotions in its thoughts process. It also has a lot of extra and's in it that are not needed making the poem a bit wordy. Examples are as follows.
Even though he is still a living and breathing man. > and is not needed in this phrase
Oh she has such a Yin and Yang personality. > remove and
She laughs in a state of elation with pure and unadulterated joy. > remove and
Her final death in the doomy and desperate skies > remove and
And her love of life and living never dies. > remove first and
And Beelzebub > remove and

With these extra words removed. It would make this a better piece of poetry... John

The White Lady

The lady who caused the death of her lover
is an example of instrument used by the devil
destructing humanity.
A lady in white to give face of reality in evil manner,
destroys the life of mankind.

You did an excellent job of writing about the complexity of the character of all women. The yin and the yang; the good and evil. Good job.

You might want to revisit the punctuation on this line: "Yet she is a being that no man woman or child" A comma would be in order I think.

Other than that I found it to be an enjoyable work of poetry. Keep up the good work.

The white lady you describe in your ballad certainly is a detestable woman. The imagery you portrayed with your skillfully chosen words, gives one pause.

Good work.
