The One of My Heart

The one of my heart
this girl is so cheap
speaking so simply
behaving with humility
but when she means it
many times she devours me
the heart I hold she eats all
the life blood she drinks all
my being she minces into beef
an empty shell I stagger
without honor to the world
with no sensibility to others
I live a life so sheep-like
because everything is hers
