Description
Heartbreak

My heart was broke, and sourly I wept,
For all the foul, doubts that crept,
Up in my mind and poisoned me.
And in my damn’d jealousy,
Twisted thy visage from your truth,
To something that I thought uncouth.

It started when, to my regret,
You gave me cause, to suspect,
That you and he were more than friends,
Which lead me to those wicked ends.
A scorching ache upon my soul,
A piercing itch, a blazing hole.

A gun I brought, a soul to capture,
But brought about thy final rapture.
In the darkness I attempted to constrain,
One missed shot brought out the pain.
Peaceful forever in my arms you slept,
My heart is broke, and sourly I wept.
