Tannins

Extra bitter are the tannins found in this ink
My ignorance caused this heart to sink
Remembering you waving on a grassy knoll
Ice is all that covers it now just as it does my soul
To think I saw something behind an arm, it was bent
Found to be just as fake as the poser that placed resent
But saturated I was in the possibility of who
All opportunities to rekindle squandered by you
