Paupers heart to give

 With Only A Pauper's

Heart to Give. 

+++++(+++++++

The morning started out a real 

shit sandwich 

that grew far worse as the day 

progressed; 

and

She was out there making 

friends 

with the world. 

( as I rotted away in my 

Loneliness .) 

+ 

Her cellophane-crackle lips 

got 

the whole thing started; 

but she's also not the one to 

blame. 

Fault lies with the broken 

hearted! 

(and how they deal with shame.) 

+ 

so when I'm all used up searchin

for 

a better way to be, 

(and she quits telling me the finest 

way 

to live) 

ill likely remain lost and lonely! 

(with only a paupers heart to give.)
