Poetry: Locked out your heart

You've really, shut up shop.

I laughed when you declared your choice,
that you were shutting down your stall,
and I would get no fruit from you,
"that's it", you said, "kerput that's all".

So when I came by Monday last,
and you were not in view I thought,
that you were having time to think,
we all do that, when feeling fraught.

Today, again no sign of you,
I really do believe you meant,
that you have had enough of me,
and it was not a silly vent.

I hate this game of waiting 'round,
I've scuffed new shoes on empty ground.

    The hurt and the jealousy, too,

    That arrives, and harbors and lingers,

    When one you desire
