The Heart that Lied

The Heart that Lied
Regina Puckett
Year added to year until there was only gray
Word added to word until there was nothing to say
Loss added to loss until there was only emptiness
Rejection added to rejection until it equaled loneliness
Addition subtracted until it finally split and multiplied
Deception added to pain until it froze the heart that lied
Your words strike truth in me, Regina. Powerful poem.
