Bitter winters Heart

It is ruined 

Lead to it's death

By a bitter winters heart

Flayed

Layed open for all to see

The feelings once common

No longer shared in communion 

I see nothing in your eyes but confusion

A love lost, was it an illusion?

So little of you remains

No smile 

To remind me

Of what was and what has gone 

The death throes rack my heart

Leaving it raw and shredded

Blood covering everything

Drowning any desire to believe

Sometimes I can scarcely catch a breath

The pain in my chest too much

All is lost

I grieve you 

If only you could be brave and come along

Find your voice and speak of it....

Let your demons go and let your heart be renewed

Bit by bit you have torn yourself from me

Closing the doors behind you as you run

The end is angry and filled with rage

You no longer can find a calm place of respite

A sadness overwhelms me....

Even as I look forward

I will miss you and miss you, I already do

I know the freedom that awaits 

The new beginning

Painful at the start

The hardest part

A gradual awakening 

Then a new dawning of love 

Once again set free to seek

I will search for a tender heart

Of grace and empathy

Passion and sincerity

A muse 

One to hold it all in her hand....

Gently, patiently and lovingly

I wish you could come along again

Be free with me
