Bit Players In Loves Department Store

She sniffs at his well worn heart
With such an elegant disdain
It smells like an article off a bargain basement rack
She only wears 'Heart Couture'
He has learned to sew a gentle smile
Into the face of hurt and pain
She wishes for a moment, maybe one, it could be taken back
Returned for store credit
A needle to thread it
Through all the holes covering bare
Places where she knows her part
Beautiful actress of Art
She sniffs at his well worn heart
