A Heart Betrayed
I set my heart within trusted hand.
Go forth to set my mark upon the land.
Trusted one protect this tender object with great care.
How, without this, can one any longer fare.
Now neglecting your precious cargo to hold another, allowing the heart to fall
and be destroyed.
Crippled by selfish act, weakened mind and body now by only spirit,
are buoyed.
Downward spiral deep into darkness, great despair, now do I pray for an end
to this cycle, no more for light.
Risen from these depths by unseen helping hand, new appreciation gained,
strengthened, ahead now an upward fight.
Renewed life, family depending upon me, I am driven.
Afflictions by thy hand, all are forgiven.
