The Arrow


from the ABC set Chris Poems

I once had an arrow
so straight it couldn't miss
I shot it deep into her heart

But now I see it lying there
broken on the ground
The point I can not find

Simple but thoroughly poignant. I love how well the two separate stanzas work as opposites ;) Well done!
