Unfaithful Parting

He had committed to staying,

At our first meeting in May.

We would love, he did vow;

With a nod and bow!

But, he was worst of them all,

And culpability’s mine, for I did fall.

Now he’s done, long gone;

Leaving me all alone!

Our exquisite seven years,

We devoted to subjugate fears.

Some were his and some mine;

And I don’t lie- I'm nor fine!

Oh! His weeny puppy eyes,

You know the jittery of mice.

He no longer bolts along the porch;

Scuttling from the sun’s scorch!

He looked cadaverous and pale,

And no longer wagged his tail.

There he laid, corpse-like;

Blockhead didn’t see that bike!

For them speed always thrills;

But through the way, it kills.

He had laid in the gush of blood;

And my tears brought the flood!
