The Cutter
THE CUTTER. . .
Ripped your heart out and cut it into pieces
Threw it in the sea to be eaten by the fishes
The fishes left to be caught on other shores
There - filleted and cooked up in their scores
Eating each fine fish - one could only remark
The fish for sure leaves a quite indelible mark
Then to journeys on to other countries wide
I found your face in others - I could not hide
How the table has turned - I am ripped apart
As the cutter in you - cuts into my own heart
