[hometext] => This poem is about the heart and mind working together to destroy the body, but you might find some deeper levels...
[bodytext] => His red heart turns upon him, And demands reason from a shattered mind. But the mind in falsehood excelling, Lies to it's friend, for the sake of them both. Hurried excuse brings comfort, but forces bad deed. Now, together, they have committed a most terrible crime, The murder of dying dreams, The assassination of an innocent man. They take the dagger, and together deal the fatal strike. As he lies dying, with his closest enemies held tight in his embrace, He removes the stained dagger, which has left a hole deeper than any other. He holds it in front of him, and brings it closer, to join his final embrace, And carved upon the handle, he sees the name of the one he loved so dear. With a silent cry he releases the dagger and beckons to his killers. All of them are free.
