The Absent Heart

I whispered, I shouted, My soul was doubted. She answered, She pleaded, Her words were unheeded. I laughed, I cried, My thoughts left inside. She borrowed, She gave, Her emotions no slave. I smiled, I frowned, My head turned around. She grinned, She sobbed, Her trust was robbed. I asked, I demanded, My temper was branded. She tried, She quit, Her heart had split.
