Circulating Despair

The heart doth not cleft cleanly down middle
Peels off by fragment, a chunk here, piece there
As single string snaps off fiddler’s fiddle
Tune of the soul hath taken on error
How to right this malady eludes me
Gentle kisses mend, old songs often rend
Anguish is duplicitous, cunning, shady
It hath no compassion, just path to end
Heart so split in two, how long can one live?
The harp of the angel, louder each day
Crux of my being, pittance left to give
I stand alone and this I have to say
Tears exemplify the tremendous cost
When hope vanishes and heart bears the loss
