Jack Ellison Poet Quatrain

Breaker of Hearts

She's a breaker of hearts
With her nose in the air
She thinks she's special
A vision so rare

A beautiful goddess
With long flowing lines
An absolute treasure
Like pure vintage wine

We can truly be victims
When loneliness starts
Seduced by the beauty
Of a breaker of hearts

We sometimes forget
Where happy begins
Deep in our soul
It comes from within

She's a breaker of hearts
Bad news in disguise
Keep on searching
Don't let lust cloud your eyes!
