Ruby Honeytip Poet I do not know?

Hook Line Thinker

I was reeled in 
Not knowing if I was 
Swimming...or broken 
I swallowed your line 
Starving for what you fed me 
Dumbstruck and wounded 
There was no fight, 
No chance that I would not 
Succumb to your lures 
Maybe here was my chance 
To witness saviour 
But now I see 
You have chosen 
To fillet and release 
My heart. 

And there's plenty more fish in the sea. 
For those like you.
