carrying on with the burden of love

mans burden on his head
is a woman as sorrow on his bed
a woman who has changed her colors
the woman that he had wed
a woman that time and tide
have incoherently mislead
a love poem when he married
now as a footnote of animosity to be read
feelings emotions love of old
all burnt out
all dead
bloodstains
on a bedspread
trying to come to terms
as on hot embers he
has to tread
man does not live
only for food and bread
he wants to live love
be loved it is said..
words flowing away as water
unread
