Loveless Pond

If I told you the truth how would you respond,
would you unsettle the still lying loveless pond?
Yet nothing compares to the heart broken pain

Cometh the lesser response that I fear
would thy have mercy and spare me a tear?
Or might thy leave me with deep distraught,
withering plants in my gardens of thought...
