Cursed Abscond

Disaffection Contemptible Inaction Always disappointing A life filled with abjection A bitterness following A black clouded – sadness – infliction Running in retrogress run from her apathy False heartedness filled with antipathy Praying for death in my godless ministry Suffering so ruthless Without any sympathy Without you I'm useless Opprobrious eyes demand I abscond For she's a shell that is now loveless Now selfish now dies Her hand is now gone In my hands now I cry.

Lost love is a terrible torment but time heals such maladies as future reveals it hopes and surprises. This is a very good write. You should do more like it.. A solid 7 from me.
