My attempt at a Sonnet


Used 1981 Heart for Sale
Jacee Ismay

Fuel my angry heart with your true infatuation.
The black haired vixen from your dreams
lips painted red with lust, legs coiled around your waist.
Rev up my strung out heart with a lover from your past.
The high school cheerleader you dated for a week,
blond curls guarding a fragile neck.
Let my desperate heart idle against your chest tonight.
Wrap me up in the comfort of your presence.

When you’re finished with my bleeding heart,
blue eyes fixated on grease stained fingers
fumbling with the collar of a shirt,
turn it off with your cold key of abandonment.
Then sell this dried up heart to someone else
so he can fix it up like new and cherish it again.
