Fallow ground waiting for a fruitful love long overdue Furrowed heart lined with unrequited, silty residue Mounds of decaying dreams my cultivating hopes askew Jaded weeds have smothered my desires anew Last season your virile plow sowed seeds of promise in a heart so true Sprouting passionate stems in the early morning dew In the noon day heat your warming affections grew Your tenderness a nuturing romance did imbue By afternoon your watering caresses caused my tapped root to spew Eventide, your cold hands from my writhing tendrils withdrew Next day, scouring winds of change o'er your truant mind blew A calous blight made you my fawning sprigs rue Your cultivating hands no longer tender touches did strew Your fertilizing succor no longer my bleating pods did cue Now shrouded by cares no suitor my stalk to hew Withering on the vine of rejection; emanating a jaundiced hue Choking thorns around my jilted psche accrue A fragile frond paying it's unrequited due
