Trojan Heart

Capricious tis a Trojan heart
Citadel secured to Cupidβs dart
Bound by armored locks
A nemesis doggedly knocks
Pursue not this dark horse
It harbors solely remorse
Spurn a yearning refrain
Infernal ardor lulls in vain.
Treacherous a foolβs design
Faint a love which is mine
Cast emotions to the sea
Prest by fervent decree
Fortified rod-iron steel
Encased it cannot feel
Breach not a fickle part
Damn, this wooden heart

So much depth Lisa, I'm blown away by your beautiful poetry.
Thank you for your kind support Gerard. I am always grateful for the love
Fan-tastic, Leeza! However, just for reference, you do not have a wooden heart, but a beautiful, warm, kind one.Β
Great writing!Β

PS. I did an x-ray while you were sleeping, and I think you ate some of my whittling(which would explain the wood in your body), and I could see your big, wonderful heart behind it. Thanks.Β
So that's why my mouth tasted like sawdust when I crawled out of bed this morning, good to know who my true friends are. It is such an honor to whittle such a gracious friendship from my bestest bud.Β
Well, to tell you the truth, I accidentally dropped the eggs I was cooking you, for your breakfast in bed, on the floor, and rather than take the trouble of making new ones(all that cracking and stuff), I just whittled some new ones out of the table leg in your kitchen. I hope you enjoyed them.Β

well eggs aren't all cracked up like they use to be.... and I don't have a kitchen table so don't know where you could have gotten the wood from.Β
Oh poop! Maybe I was in the wrong house!! Are you at 1215 Monkeybumps Rd. East Lansing, Iowa 98289?? It looked like you...but then again I've never seen you, so it could have been Mrytle Fleenpopper III. Can you research this for me? I'd like to get her a new table. Thanks!Β
