Change of Hearts

He said I do
she said likewise
two hearts have been joined
and become one
in holy matrimony
with strong
vibrant bridal love
where there is
fullness of joy
peace and security
all the days
enduring years on end
until the love had faded
like a flower
that did once bud, bloom
wilted away
and lost its beauty
only to be detested
and thrown away
as worthless, rubbish
to be counted as dung

you have wasted my heart
you have played my heart strings
and left me in silence

and yet our song is not heard
but only the discord
of a broken heart
that once was

the heart that we had together
torn like a garment
and ripped asunder
into two again
a fragment of the beauty
once beheld

the one have become two again
broken fragments of the whole
exhibiting hearts that will
need a careful mend
