A Hopeless Cause
A frantic feeling fuels fear,
gnawing at the heart of the beast.
For love's exquisite, searing flame;
is painfully consuming him.
Love has infected his being,
boring a hole into his heart.
Yet, at the fringes of darkness,
evil contorts his blackened soul.
Captivated by her beauty,
he squirms, writhing in agony.
Seeking hope for a hopeless cause,
he loves her despite all his flaws.
Reaching within, he grabs his heart
and rips it out to ease his hurt.
Smitten with her, he lies bereft,
for the pangs of passion persist.
