Through Union
My first contest submission
Through inurbane behaviour not of me
Your affections I regrettably did alienate
Watched through tears your heart dissipate
A self chosen scapegoat not a villain
Though wading in capricious waters
Drenched emotions lucidly perspicuous
From heart through pen not to flatter
But to quell malignant time apart
Hope and hearts soon must gravitate
With faith in non transitory union
