Loves Wounding Blade

What, but in this dismal life should appear My hopes, my dreams, true love All seem to fade Into the distance I reach My eyes begin to tear My heart pierced through with loves wounding blade! I sought the shelter of loves sweet embraces In a woman who's heart was filled with vengeful maces Evil all around! My body, heart and soul abused Pain and hurt consume me! My heart and mind bemused My love, like a glass house she shattered! Sharing herself with so many mates Male and female indiscriminate Her sexual desire insatiates My loins burned for her in heated passion I hoped at once she'd share My fantasies brought bare! In her, delectable delights and fatuations But only in monogamy - My passionate energies ignite With her, my love lives alone Urequited, unappreciated She doesn't know my heart She fails to listen Her own, with walls all around a'glisten Her mind imprisoned From many years of Giving into lust and depravity! No matter how strong my love for her There seems to be no relenting She's given into such disbelief As cannot be imagined Her mind's eye blinded by words, She deemed dissenting If only she knew how to open up To love and meaningful discussion Could she see the errors In her cruel interpretations? Alas! Consumed by hurtful vengeance be "God he will suffer for those words he said to me" In silence she makes me suffer For wrongs I'm not guilty of Her judgements of my actions So obediently; innocently intended Convicted by her own guilt, she pretended! Her cruelty knows no bounds While she rips, tears, cuts and destroys The fabric of our "True Love" Such ignorance! My soul screams out! Oh! The sadness of it! A travesty of two hearts That were once united! How do I get through to her Misunderstanding heart? There is so much more to love Than what just meets the eye! "Whatever happened to communication?" I cry! Its the only way to dissuade The problems of the heart Open hearts and open minds, Forgiveness, faithfulness, and Trust These are some ingredients For a deep and lasting love Why does she persist In her cruel, vengeful ways? To cause pain, not deserved Oh! It truly hurts and dismays! With patience, love, and forbearing kindness I seek to go, where no man ponders - For fear of weakness and humility of soul. For my one, my true cherished woman - God and Angels, made! For her, I would cast, myself down - Onto Loves Wounding Blade!
