Queen of hearts

Not a believer, in an unseen shape shifter

your words mean little, I'm not bitter

just better than ever, fragile but mending

unlike the queen of hearts left standing

Those fleeting glances, entranced encounters

an enchantress as she showers

the room with flowers

the queen of hearts a bland exchange, flounders

Tripping alone, unknown, unkempt kept unclean

the beauty queen dances on screen, under his sighs, in dreams

below the shade of night left to dilute in the sunshine of

the queen of hearts glow, so cold, like snow

A deceiver, she can never deliver, the promise of better

pick up the receiver, its her way or the highway send a letter

spend the days getting fitter, instead of thinking

of the queen of hearts, her allure slowly sinking

Cut this heart to ribbons, throw them like confetti someone

the queen is gone and the days a new dawn

never alone, someday she will know, the light has been shown

the call made, the day at last lived unafraid and regrown

Thanks for reading,
Peace & Love.
Kyle.
