Ivory heart

an ivory black,it lay in tatters
merciessly shredded by heat
no sun or light, merely shadows
and around it my ivory heart beats

a pathetic cry in the night
a still body, lying dead
a life swept away in the night
as my ivory heart gives dread

a tear of lonlyness
a feeling of hate
emotionless
as my ivory heart waits
