Broken Poem by H Seeking

Finally someone made for me
Yet I am running away from ye?
Just beginning a life of subterfuge
In this cold world a refuge

But I did this to myself
For reasons not power nor pelf
Why did you listen? I need help
From deep within, I yelp

There was no gun to my head
Then why am I feeling so dead?
Crying icy tears in my bed
So many words still unsaid

I was ready to swoon
Had crazily begun to even croon
But you agreed too soon
Now I have lost a boon

A crazy thought
Has infinite sorrow brought
My best friend I keenly sought
Now this heart is mangled and wrought

I see your name in every mark
Silently walking in the dark
Why, it seems bitten by a shark
Quick, it rains, get in the ark

People tell me I look strange
Eyes hollow, even deranged
Fate, can you something rearrange?
Cannot bear to be estranged

So what if I am hoi polloi
And you are Helen of Troy
I am moping like a school boy
Even though I am the real McCoy

I don't care to look for snow
I thought you would like to know
As I look over my wrinkled brow
A horrible end to the show

Perhaps it will do our soul good
The old bird finally get some food
No need to hide beneath the hood
And for millennia brood

But for now, I am severely broken
Tiny pieces in my heart, once bespoken
Now just ticking away as a token
Inside, feels all lead and oaken
