Thusforth, Untitled
December 30, 2011
It's always been a mystery
how Love can take its toll:
fills a heart with ecstasy
then lacerates a hole.
It builds a rainbow bridge of such
to cross the Lonely Sea.
A hefty flame the bridge does touch
to burn and abandon thee.
It arrives and seeks the misty eyed
with tears dashed down her face.
To seize and push the Sad aside
forcing Hope to take its place.
It abducts a helpless victim
and commandeers her heart.
She won't see a happy outcome;
she was fooled right from the start.
