Love Poem: A Callous Heart

A Callous Heart

Half-truths morph into deceit, warping words of love's refrain. And caution sounds the retreat, devastated by the pain. Your heart lies cold and broken; passion's flame flickered out. For hurtful words were spoken when truths were bandied about. A naive victim of lust learns fantasies fall apart. For fraying the bond of trust, time reveals a callous heart. Imprisoned without a key, feelings become tightly wound. And unless you set them free, the love you seek won’t be found.
