This breath is stuck within my breast, <br />This heart caught between beats, <br />The tear still runs down my cheek, <br />Before my Lovers folly. <br /> <br />The knife it twists within his back, <br />Red falls upon this snow, <br />Hearts beat does come and breaks my chest, <br />Because of anothers folly. <br /> <br />My tear does strike the ground and freeze, <br />A monument to subtle death, <br />Love's betrayal, pain, anguish, <br />This tear does lie frozen, <br />For all to see, <br />What a Lovers death doth bring to me.<br /><br />Holly Heron<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-lover-s-death/
