Hearts and Poison Darts

 
To see your face again
After all these years
Brings back so many feelings
Brings back so many tears
 
I remember as if it were yesterday
When my soul beheld the divine
I couldnt tear myself away
I had to make you mine
 
You were my first
You were my worst
My beautiful beloved curse
 
You were my joy
And sweetest sorrow
All our time together borrowed
 
You were too good to be true
Too good to love me back
You stole my heart from its secret place
And had it for a snack
 
In my chest is a gaping hole
Left there by the heart you stole
replaced now by a lump of coal
the fuel for my infernal soul
 
Your love just beyond my reach
Like the tall tree's dangling peach
 
Your face engraved upon my heart
Gave me heartburn from the start
If I could only have been smart
Then i wouldnt have let you tear me appart
I guess cupid doesnt shoot arrows
He shoots poison darts
