Darkened Path to Love

1 0 0
                                    

my heart isn't ready for love

the usually warm sunny path

to my heart

is now coated in ice and snow

sharp icicles stick up from the ground

cutting and bruising anyone that tries to enter

i need to navigate my own way

through that treacherous journey

only i'm carrying everything i have with me

strapped to my memory

making every step slow

all my movements are jerky

causing me to slip and fall

another bruise

another story

my cuts bleed out on the perfect snow

creating a perfect blood path

to my bleeding heart
