A Quatern poem inspired by an image prompt for the Dark Dreamscapes Poetry Contest.

The cruel beast that stole her heart
He’s charming, so funny, and smart
Treats her well, so gentle and kind
Fates intervened, the stars aligned

A romance blooms right from the start
The cruel beast that stole her heart
The couple inseparable
No challenge irreparable

She was certain they were heading
Toward engagement and a wedding
The cruel beast that stole her heart
Effects a sudden, swift depart

He cheats and leaves her on her own
To sort the pieces all alone
Her whole life undone, come apart
The cruel beast that stole her heart
