Ment Not To Be (Unkind Words) Poem by Uloia Norris Moore

Meant not
for her
no understanding
than
to say
most unstable

With holding from
her husband
thinking me overly
intelligent
abundantly
so

Terrible actions
such lack
of for sight
did cause

Things would differently
be done
if this knowledge
I could so
of had

She thought I
hated her
when to the
extrema side
to that word
never heard

Now she does
hate me
for such
doings

To mend such
a thing
a scar on
my heart
would so I
bare

Just another
trick
would she
so think
of it

My sorrow cannot
she bear
