If at any moment
Your heart may utter my name
Silence it
Tear its words from your chest
And banish them
From your thoughts
Run a silver dagger
Along your lips
To stain her lips
As you tainted mine
Slip a sinful poison
Into your drink
And whither a slow
And painful heartache
May your suffering soul
Cry out in pain
A Sorrow filled scream
Strangled by my lust for you
Inspired by the poem Havisham by Carol Ann Duffy, I explored the feelings of heartache and envy, telling the tale of a girl who's heart has been shattered to many times to ever recover.
