The One with Whom I Now Lay

I noticed when we met today
The tragic, nostalgic, longing way
You looked at the one with whom I now lay.

She’d never give in to your whim,
Since she knows that your affection’s slim,
While I dote on her and make her heart brim.

Years hence she gave her heart to you,
And the softness of her body, too.
But you neglected her till she withdrew.

Your heart was bleeding in your eyes,
Seeing how her sun blazes the skies
When cherished as befits a wondrous prize.

So, have the moon you left her for
And brood on treasures that vaults can’t store,
For she’ll lie blithe with me forevermore.
