Poem for today:

“heartbreaker”

he collected tears in jars

in trophy cases, he placed hearts

of every girl he strung along

with a handsome smile and a song

he had his methods perfected

any offers of love, he rejected

but truthfully, he was so broken

all he could do was gather tokens

to toss aside when used up

but eventually he was struck

by the potion of cupid’s arrow

but he couldn’t escape his shadows

for she knew all about his past

didn’t think their love would last

but everyday he tried his best

to put his old ways down to rest
