The Poet's Pen
His written smitten heart filled words for her scrawled on his page. Letters the poet's pen sent with his love in calligraphy. A reaching writhing riddle written riding richly in his heart.
Years he spent, letters leaving loosely lovingly living from his left hand. But Broken, beaten belittled by brash brazen years of being ignored the poet set down his pen. Lighting lamps longing listless in his eyes. He found parchment from the woman. The poet peered persistently at penned parchment. Three words wrote, "I love you" the poet picked his pen packing it planning to pick her up. His heart called out as he hit the hard cobblestone.  Too late careless carriage cringing as cracking bones brought busy bumbling beasts to a halt. Blood red ink was swallowed by the poets pen. A love lost. Words now soiled sweet sugar snow. Terrible treacherous tears. Life lastly lastly lost.
