My Hear Sings Not Love Song

Oh, my darling, my heart sings not love song

Your glistening eyes are darkened in glow

Songs change not outcomes, which I fondly long

From a heart where only wilted roses grow.

I shall live with what is my fate has restored

Your heart is barren to grow any seed

Forever sing not songs for I adored

I leave not blindly this weak heart to bleed.

Agonizing pain paid such dearly price

I’m loved yet not in symmetry order

This heart stranded not a wishful surprise

I’m forevermore refrained on border.

If this’s love ballads, shall you find unread,

Pity, not I seek, for the tears I shed.
