I read a poem today
full of sorrow and dismay
the poet's life laid out on display
it seems a deceiver came his way.
This dark cloud cast a shadow
of doubt upon his being.
And now, his past keeps
him from really seeing
all the beauty that is right
before his eyes.
It lies in the rose
which by any other shape or size
would still smell as sweet
He wears a veil that conceals
what his head may not know
but his heart feels
She also has a sad song to sing
emotionally abused,
abandoned
and confused.
But she has decided not to
let this one song
be the symphony that she sings
her whole life long.
So he runs and dismisses her,
writes a poem wherein he kisses her,
She broods and insults
Getting the expected results
He thinks she will discard the glass
because the wine is bitter, but no
she will instead discard the wine
but save the goblet she cherishes so.
How will this story end?
The answer lies in hope my friend.
