Dear Heart;

What could be the cause of your delay?
I'll use this knife to stop my heart if you've gone astray.
Could you not simply send a letter?
if you'd been hurt telling me your getting better?
Just say that you still live and you'll come home,
riding that big brown and white horse they call a roan.
Ill bake you a cake without the butter.
I hope you understood that cause I don't stutter!
Our big feather bed has been too cold
Tried keepin it warm for ya, but this story is gettin old.
I tried to plow but I don't have the strong arm.
I need somebody to help me run this farm.
The butcher is sweet on me he gives me hamhocks.
And the widower down the road he gives me peacocks.
Mayhap, you should have left a sentry;
right now this house is feeling very empty.
Oh well, back to the wine celler.
Now who today will be my fine feller.
To just talk of course, don't think worse of me!
It's your lips I long to kiss, that's why I write, can't you see?
