Rancor

I would have taken the heart of mine, had he possessed one. I had to settle for breaking him. Excellent poem and poet both.

He ignored my plea when I implored him to stay

I cried silently

Gripping the metal of my verdict

He shuddered when I slid the chain around his neck

He didn’t say anything

He took a deep breath of aversion

His algid eyes piercing through my soul

His hands were cold just like his heart

I mourned for his death

In my hands, he bled

I took his heart out

His cruel heart, no more
