Meow

Once when prudence turned to foolish
A change touched issue to my brow
A wily blow was brought to bear
On the vent of some cats meow.

The obvious of lain once lamb.
Rose up to be a Lions' roar.
And the subtle sword of cunning
Cut chaos on my Cupid's door.

Chivalry died and bellied up
Sensitivity ceased a spell.
Jealousy that shapeless monster
Opened a crack the doors of hell.

And the barb found the hearts tender
Driven in by a selfish floor.
By the prick of a subtle doubt
But strong enough to kill amour.

And the cat raised its tail in spae
Purred, turned its back and walked away.

"Jealousy that shapeless monster" Monster indeed, jealousy is probably the worst thing that can happen to a relationship. Loved the poem.
