Battle for Love

Tempers flare, emotions rage,
The battle soon begins.
A fight from loves unending page,
The fight that no one wins.

Not to harm and not to curse,
Her actions may have been.
Now my wounds, I must nurse
From the ignorance of them.

She tore my heart and shot it though
Reducing it to ashes,
And since her actions were not true
She tore her heart with slashes.

She took the love, of which I gave
And threw it in my face.
So in the end I'll wave goodbye
And leave her in disgrace.

Now the battle draws an end,
The damage all around.
And though my heart will surely mend,
I pray a hope be found.
