HEART'S LEASE

You leased your heart to me

I was a merely a tenant 

living peacefully, paying rent

as agreed

between the lessor and

the lessee.

And when the lease expired 

you never renewed 

Cos' you got a new tenant younger

more fiesty

and got me evicted without

much ado

How could you?

I had lived forty years 

giving you your space 

Allowing you entry without

any protestation

Increasing rent whenever

demanded 

Fine... now enjoy your new

acquisition
