WOUNDED by JESSAMINE SLAUGHTER BURGUM

First Line: YOUR HAND WOULD NEVER HOLD A SWORD
Last Line: AND WHEN YOU NEED ME - I'LL FORGET
Subject(s): LOVE - COMPLAINTS;
Your hand would never hold a sword
To pierce me through and through,
And yet so deadly is your word,
You've torn my heart in two,
That heart that never failed you yet,
And when you need me - I'll forget
