Strung Up

Strung Up

A Poem by Ken Baldwin
"

Feeling bad from hurting the woman I loved at the time.

"
shattered dreams.
hope is lost.
what have i done?
i want to die.

in trying to be strong,
i have become week.
a woman’s heart….
is not a plaything.

i want to commit.
why can’t i?
we were happy before,
before that fateful day.

where did my love go wrong?
she doesn’t deserve this.
doesn’t deserve me.
i am a foolish man.

i should be strung up,
for all the world to see.
expose my fears and weaknesses,
for strangers to flog,
to give her retribution.
