O POISON HEART written by Alan.s.Robinson O poison heart, o poison heart What acid tears, are these upon my cheeks Not love but hate, how strange, how strange That I so strong in love, in hate am weak O poison heart, o poison heart Tethering my soul, to (the) vengeance(s’) mast Such evil thoughts betray myself It is I, my vile curse against is cast O poison heart, o poison heart When did hated phial, replace gold chalice That warmth I felt, protecting with my arms Turn to open thoughts, of bloody malice O poison heart, o poison heart That that dread song, should ting so sure (sore) That struggling reason, should surrender quite And I should wish, to hear her sing no more. O poison heart, o poison heart What hollow victory, does thou find None walks triumphant from the field Where vengeance holds sway on (upon) the mind O poison heart, o poison heart Does mine own blood, congeal in thee A stagnant pool, a deeper, darker dread That pain that bled, and infected me.
