Cruelty To Humans
The runaway in the night;
A note left to be read.
No chance to set it right;
An overpowering dread.
The situation absurd;
He wonders where to start.
Carefully chosen words;
A sword enters the heart.
Their lives left shattered;
Both futures untold.
His life left shattered;
By her actions much to bold.
