Wounded & The Jack of Diamonds

Sheila Apperson

JACK of DIAMONDS

The Jack of Diamonds will break your heart and make you cry. Watch out for him, his love is a lie. He will make you fall; and if you let him, he will watch you crawl. He will hurt you over and over again. If you let him, he will do you in. He will make you feel alive and then put you out with no way to survive.

The Jack of Diamonds will make you pay for the time you have loved him every single day. The Jack of Diamonds will break your heart and make you cry. He will leave you in the streets to watch you die.

WOUNDED

I have been wounded by a love for sometime

An old love all drenched in wine.

Another broken heart on down the line,

Too many loves that have declined.

A long time to feel the pain

of a love slowly going insane.

I have been wounded by a love that has broken me down

Dragging me hard into the ground.

A cold love, all drenched in wine,

that left me far away and long behind.

One love that could never seem to mend,

Just a hurt in a heart screaming out loud from deep within.
