Move On, Sweetheart Poem by John Sensele

Sweetheart, don't continue to weep
Although challenges hijack your pesky trip
For hours on end sorrow and pain won't let you sleep

Fact is that you have so much to give
With much power your oppressors to forgive
Including the heartless Steve

Who stole your heart
Ate to his heart's content your tart
And from your bosom chose to depart

But although you suffered a heartbreak
You hold so much at stake
If you now avoid company that smells and feels fake

To prevent injecting into your space
Company with the acrid and acid ace
Whose wish aims at spoiling the surface

You hold dear
From which you invite no tear
Alongside a dumb dose of fear

Which belongs to Hell
As betrayal you can't always foretell
Cos a traitor doesn't always ring a warning bell

To put on guard your feet
As you suck a happy sweet
And a Prince Charming you long to meet

Your heart to gladden
To decrease the beastly burden
Someone lumbers you with, all of a sudden

In the wee hours of the night
Snuffing out your light
Stealing your delight

Sinking into your broken back a dagger
As a heartless partner pulls the trigger
Giving you no chance to figure

Out what tricks he has up his sleeves
As in your circle he scatters sorrow leaves
Showing he belongs to pitiful heart thieves

Worth little
Less than spittle
And once for all, his pesky memories soon make brittle.
