The Frostbitten Heart

A heart as black as blackest
Night
So desperately cried for a hint of
Light
 
But its cries were muffled
By that frostbitten veil;
 
A winter-blackened derelict,
Pelted by the hail.
 
Its cries soon became a stifled
Song;
 
A silent symphony
Of love lost and love longed.
 
But every heart that came,
With the desire to hear,
 
Was greeted with a warm veneer.
 
So the blizzard-begotten symphony Began not to play but to wail;
How truly tragic it is then,
That it could still not pierce the veil.
 
For how could one share love so warm that it Dawns the summer sun
 
When a heart who’s ice is frozen tears can brave Its storm for none.
