This poem is about sacrifice, moving on, forgetting yet remembering. I wrote it a while ago and I hope you like it. :)

********

The beat of rain upon the land,

Broken teardrops 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 tears, the remains of a love,

That burst to flames sent from

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 and bound by ink.

Surviving each day 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.
