A broken heart turns to ice,
Cold to anyone who approaches it.
You circled that traitorous heart of mine cautiously,
Aware of the pre-damage, unsure whether
You should be the one to fix it.
But you were the one I saw in the after-smoke.
To kick-start the fire in my eyes
You broke into that emotionless void,
And the color in my face reignited once more.
