Lovesong:

Winter clung to him

Like a second skin

In his heart

Sharp silence in din

His eyes gleamed ice

Piercing through my soul

My glassy heart

Never again whole

Dropped too many times

Now beyond repair

Glued back together

Couldn't ever prepare

For the broken man

The one with blue eyes

And the suffering heart

The man with the lies

Who's cold eyes and fiery heart

Captured it in its cage

With the chains unbreakable

My heart's only rage

Beaten and caught

Never again it's own

Always his possession

To ground or throne

Illusion of kindness

Truth was never spoken

Living in a sea of untruths

Chemistry broken

Sparks red hot

At once Heat and cold

Surviving despite odds

At once blood and gold

Never saw his heart

He crushed mine

Love was my savior

Was my death at one time

Couldn't survive

Fell in a hole

No cushioning affection

Not even the soul he stole

Said those three words

Nothing in return

Another notch on his belt

Just left to burn

Moved on so quickly

I was nothing

Gone in a second

No more false loving

Broken ticket stubs

A wine bottle or two

Some jewelry, a ring

But no sign of truth

A memory long gone

Filled with empty hope

He left only lies in his wake

Shutting me out of his scope

I had clung to the frost

But winter was gone

All of my dreams

They were too heavy now
