I Exercise Care Poem by John Sensele

Stopped pouring tears on my pillow
Crying my heart out for the player
In whom I invested love like a willow
That's lost her mind to a soul slayer.

Turned the page and lit a new flame
Who on me lavishes love and care
I deserve in action, not just in name
So accomplished, I declare.

No more nights spent in tears
Cascading from my eyes like rain
When skies open to heighten fears
I detest like pests of strain

I don't deserve
If I care to detect early signs of neglect
No sucker on me should serve
Provided partners with caution I should select.
