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
