Lonely Quest
He loved her once
In words and deep touch
Of glances and flowers
Kissing away the hours to forever
She trusted him once
In heart and divine song
Of sighs and smiles
Holding on to each other’s dreams
He kissed her on the heart
Passionate, eager lips
Devoured it with reverent hunger
Then, then he tore it apart
Her sacred self scarred and chained
To a man who played a game
The game is called “whose to blame”
Selfish refrain
Didn’t you promise forever
In your words of consuming love
That is until the day your muse woke up
And you found another to worship and dress up
Who are you?
Why were you?
What have you?
When did you?
My questioning heart on a lonely quest.
