Some Hearts

28 1 2
                                    

Some hearts shelter from winter storms

And hide from the icy blast

Of love's first frigid death.

Some hearts cry out in sorrow

As love's soft breath 

Fades to nothing.

Some hearts freeze under the pressure

Of half-hearted promises

And horrid lies. 

Some hearts wither into nothing

As they cease their beating

And their joy petrifies. 

Some hearts break and shatter, 

Leaving nothing but a lifeless shell

For others to shred apart. 

But not mine.
