A Can Of Worms Poem by Phil Soar

The can of worms he opened, led to torture and despair
His heart was dealt a bitter blow, no happy ending there
From deep within the secrets, that he found below the stairs
Were all the lies and bitterness, that meant she didn't care

The years he'd spent in love with her, not knowing all the facts
How love became a masquerade, not able to react
And when the final straw had come, and he knew that she'd lied
He Stared into a blackened void, and just lay down and cried
