Love Poem: Ever Growth

Ever Growth

The dawn breaks into tiny pieces,

Shatters into dust,

In a flash my heartbeat ceases,

Life cruel and unjust,

Memories of days with you,

Bittersweet and lust,

Everyday your love decreases,

In you, I cannot trust.

Falling from the grace of Heaven,

Numb and incomplete,

I'd swim across the River Severn

For you to repeat

The words you once whispered so soft,

With which I can't compete,

Time stands still - it's now or never,

To erase deceit.

My heart is broken, six feet down,

You leave me here for dead,

To break my soul I shan't allow,

For too long I have bled,

I will not falter, will not bow,

On I you cannot tread,

I'll stand 'til I'm below the ground,

In my wooden bed.
