The fan.

I gave you my heart
in a tidy gold basket
you could have had more
if only you'd asked it,
I sat by your feet
and worshiped your shine,
but you spat in my face
with your red vintage wine.

Cold in dismay
I try to convey
the pain that I feel from your spite
but for all of your knives
this heart here survives
to love you STILL
truly...
through life.

Devotion in the face of spite. Loyalty although rejected. A crying out against your betters. Made me think about who I'm a fan of...

G'day! This evokes strong emotions and it does hit home as someone has already stated. I feel as though I am at the feet of a goddess right now although, thankfully, she is not spitting at me. Well-expressed, Kay.
