Heart Of Ice

The beat of rain upon the land

Broken teardrop in my hand

Shattered remains upon the ground

My beating heart the only sound

A twisted tale chiseled in stone

Stories forgotten as the voices drone

Heart of ice, frozen in time

Far away, bells start to chime

The wind whispers through the trees

Voices carried on each breeze

Cries and sobs drown each bell

Secrets kept that no one shall tell

A tear cast aside that came to you

Reflecting anger and lies turned true

A tear that fell, yet went unshed

An unseen symbol filled with dread

Lonesome night to wash away

Heart wrenching pain of another day

The shattered pieces of a broken heart

Sewn together yet fallen apart

Broken tear the remains of a love

That burst to flames sent above

Heart of ice turned to stone

These silent voices start to drone

They tell these tales as though the end

Was at their side until they send

Each tale to lay before these lies

Glittering shards of diamond eyes

This heart of ice is the only link

Chained in black bound by ink

Surviving each cay by only a drop

Lest its beating was ever to stop

As each day slowly wears on

The last shreds of hope are long gone

In the fields of glass, of diamond lies

Unseen by all except dreaming eyes

The spirits lie, awaiting the sacrifice

That is to be this heart of ice.
