True, once I did love thee to infinity and beyond with all my heart, it was said there could not be a more Venusian of couples.
Alas, it was not meant to be. In my naivety I was so vulnerable to your deception you could have plunged a dagger into my heart and I would be none the wiser.
Your swoons to him and avoidance of me set off suspicions but truly I must admit I was still as much a fool then as I had always been.
I shall make for thee a rose as black as thine own heart
For every betrayal another quake, A great tremor
'Till the aches cease and they condemn her
Forever and never, I swear no end to my fervour
I condemn this venomous viper to the snipers
