Oh don't we all know someone?
who broke our heart
one time,
that memory of misery
that
unforgotten rhyme.
To sure we were
upon that day
when we thought love
was here to
stay,
to soon amidst the light of dawn
our heart's discovered
love was
gone.
For who know's not?
such wretched pain that fill's thyne heart
with such distain,
left to while away the hours
wilting weeds amongst the
flowers.
Ahh! that special someone
the answer
to our prayer,
that dream come true we thought we knew
has left us in
despair.
Of course we all know some
who played us for a fool,
love to them was but a job
and we were but a
tool.
Ben

A wonderful write on such a painful truth. But to play the fool is to know how to love. This is a truth atleast I live by. I find this work a most familiar piece and I love the concept of the fool. One I have written about many times. I really love the way you portrayed it. I must admit though I agree with you I am not fond of being called a tool or you calling yourself a tool. But, then again in a sense and in many ways we all are. I personally enjoyed the entire write "in spite of the tool comparrison, lol". Though the fourth stanza screams with poetic power and that was what nabbed me the most on this wonderful work of yours. Always a pleasure to read one of your works!
BRAVO!

Good write, Ben. I hate to think about becoming a tool to anyone....but I get your drift, man. It is a hurtful world we live and love in. ......what's that saying?...... "only the strong survive?" that is just crazy.
Much peace,
