Love Poem: Heartless

Heartless

The day when first I saw her face
Is vivid in my mind,
For my heart flew up and took
My spirits with it to the sky,

And every time that she was near,
My heart to the heavens was swept,
And every time we shared a kiss,
Up to the smiling stars it leapt,

Until one day she cut the strings
That held me to my troublesome tool,
Then sharply down to Earth I smashed
And wept just like a broken fool,

And since my heart I gave away,
I've learnt love's not a thing to waste,
But now I have no heart to give;
Merely teardrops in its place.
