#jilted
Juliet woke with a hollowed chest, Pale as moonlight, robbed of rest. Her tears still warmed the empty bed, No whispered words, no hand to wed. Romeo stirred with a rising grin, The morning air a breath of sin. Freedom jingled in his coat, Dreams half-truths that barely float. They were too young, hearts unbound, Jilted lovers in a jilted town. What a shame, for he's wiser now— But she is gone, she won’t come down. Juliet rose with fire anew, Shaking off the ghost she knew. She walked alone beneath the sky, Found hope within a stranger's eye. Romeo woke with aching head, The lies he told now softly bled. He saw through passion, raw and stark— Chased fool’s gold that missed the mark. They were too young, hearts unbound, Jilted lovers in a jilted town. What a shame, for he's older now— But she moved on, and broke their vow. They were too young, they couldn’t stay, Two broken hearts that lost their way. In this town of sighs and longing frowns, Jilted love still haunts the grounds.

Jilted Romeo & Juliet
The rose, Staid on the porch rail, Was forbidden in the parlor. First frost arrived, Enrobing petals in velvet, Crimson thick and skin softened, Bewildering. Those who stroll by Behold, But not take — Who could handle The scentless spectacle Spoiling inside? A private decay in a white blanket tomb, A fading in a deafened hollow. Next year the neighbor will plant New roses to surrender.

The rose
Knocking on your door But no one's home today I brought a cake and iced champagne It was supposed to be a special occasion I call and get no answer I get no explanation I'm just standing here by myself But I guess that's how it goes So, oh well Songbirds Lovebirds What difference does it make? It's all a dance to be danced The end result is the same Everything that happens winds up in the grave Still wide awake at 2 My palms sweat in a motel room See you again? Maybe the next time Maybe someday soon

Nobody's Home
For when the sun burns and turns colden, The bright yellow spurns from beauty golden, to a lack of interest for a system relying on light to pour; listen though sound travels less in haste, it makes our bodies bounce. For when the girl is burned and trounce The bright mind spurned from evening gown to a lack of interest to assist him. He relied on her light to pour; her to listen though sorry travels, lest after distaste, it makes us pronounce. For when a mistake is burned into history. The stone cold as etched again, and sought. Good will may be borrowed, entrusted, stolen, but rarely bought. For when a daybreak creeps into horizon. The stones thrown as glass houses brought Goodly upon their foundations, in the naked eyes of all sunspot. May those coloured fractals of which lurch deftly. Return to shared ***** directly, swiftly. Freshly.

Evening Gown
I smiled, All the while, It was as false As a dice. The came my laughter, It was bitter, Uncontrollable  tears fell thereafter. On the floor I sagged, Within me a volcano raged, Me,I, myself  ditched!! When many I had dumped. All  the wedding plans had been made, All the time I was misled, Not me, my best friend he wanted. Suicide? Not my kind, ****** Was on my mind. Then I realised, The magma in me subsided, With despair I smirked, My eyebrows quirked, Many I had jilted, They must have been brokenhearted, You reap what you sow, In time, may be,I will find the right beau. In the meantime I will rest, Hot scented baths,soft music, delicious food, the best. Perhaps, a move to the countryside, With family and old friends by my side.

Jilted
"As you are bewitched By my beauty Allow me to be a bit naughty! Pleasure expect not to gain Without a little pain. Take me to The most expensive Restaurants that exist. Let me order dishes top On the menu list. Hurry, let us go To another place Having for an open -kitchen A space. Don't you doubt I have interest For a none-stop bout. Buy me Expensive cosmetics And shoes Dresses and an overcoat And what not? Not forgetting money For transport. Though when You got me first, I was broke I had a pride strong Like a rock!" Although you seem a dove, A wolf in a sheep's skin, You are blind to A genuine love, Hence,I have decided The problem to solve! Before you jilt me When I have nothing For you to siphon, Finish with you I ought As love must not be A typhoon. So dove, Helpless, may helps you God who is above!

Sorrowfully
I scratch a couple of lines on a old notebook cover about a beautiful girl and her soon jilted lover He stays out so late til the break of dawn the jumps into bed with his britches on he smells like beer and farts in the air pulls the covers over his head like he doesn't care his phone is open a new girl on speed dial she finally caught him and starts to smile she packs his bag as he snores away he has to go he can not stay grabbing him by the ankle she pulls him to the floor tells him to get out holding open the door he stumbles out into the grass "STAY OUT" she yells "YOUR'E SUCH AN *** he takes off quickly in his fancy car got nowhere to go he heads to the bar he tries to call her she's done with him his chances with her are rather slim he made his bed it's where he'll lay that's what happens when you try to play

Step Off *****
Cute girl, a dove You grew up expectant Of an inviolable love. But,know there are things You should, such as Unfold the unexpected could. Cute girl, ingratiatingly enjoying A green light To the citadel of your girlhood At the height of your virginal beauty Holding you close **** Adept in creating the required mood, A fickle womanizer may Suddenly leave you for good! Sister you should have Seen through Mr. Fickle's lack of personal Integrity and internal beauty. So cute girl ,please brush aside Your self pity packed song "My love for Mr.Fickle,who adorned with my chastity, is   matchless and strong!" Also cute girl , know you should Punishing Mr.Fiddle For Mr.Fickle's mistake Is the worst displacement You could make. Thus cute girl Better focus on the fact You will be an efficacious cure To a genuine lover yearning For you  with a heart pure! The love lorn Mr.Fidel,probably Injured by Miss.Fickle, Terribly clamors for your help To nurse him and To get him back in shape. The past you will Cease to rewind Soul and body With lovelorn Mr.Fiddle When you get entwined! When pricked with a thorn Barefooted farmers Pull out the thorn With a thorn So cute girl pull out The ungrateful Mr.Fickle With the grateful Mr.Fiddle That way the problem You could settle!

Stop Licking A Wound!
You're a pretentious, pompous, arrogant, megalomaniac. I would be kind in calling you a narcissistic sociopath. You suckle on the financial **** of "your" woman. In an effort of acceptance their world becomes yours. ...and when you are done, you leave them empty. Empty and in the cold darkness, much like your soul. You're a pretentious, pompous, arrogant, megalomaniac.
