I watched as you fell

From Heaven into Hell

And spiraled through the sadness and sorrow

I was all you had left

As you curled up and wept

For you, there is truly no morrow

So, try as I might

To relieve you of your plight

There was no way for you to be jolly

I gave you attention

Showered you with affection

You remained my melancholy Molly

Oh Molly, my love

My beautiful dove

What can I do to appease you?

I’ll write you a sonnet!

Maybe buy you a bonnet?

I’d do anything to please you

God can be so ruthless

And I feel so useless

Watching as you stare at his pictures

I know that you loved him

Held no one above him

You honor him with each of your scriptures

I often see you writing

In very dim lighting

Of the love you felt for “Johnny”

Your precious lover

You’ll “never love another”

As jealousy quickly confined me

I gave you my shoulder

And I was your boulder

While you mourned over his passing

But now, It’s been a year

Am I invisible, my dear?

A little love is all I’m asking

If you had no intention

Of emotional progression

Then why did you lead me on?

I knew you were weakened

And torn into pieces

So I wanted to sing you my song

But you don’t want to hear it

This pain I cannot bare it

Another night loveless and lonely

And though I grow weary

We live on in theory

While you remain my one and only
