Broken Ice
Heart breaking ice
I have been bitten
In the deepest
chambers
Cold black
frosted ice
Cracks begin
Showing
Watch where
you are skating
Oh but I
am not depressed
In fact
the very opposite
Raging mad
Like a red rag
to a bull
A bird dirtied
on the nest
Blowing
the main fuse
Like a flash
of lightning
Heartless burning
Deep inside
Beyond
my wildest belief
To have the nerve
Cold as steel
I shake your hand
Tainted
my little paradise
Drawing the past
latest conquest
A place dear to me
Were I grew up
Laughter and happiness
echoes
In the mind beautiful
I have no words
to say
Cutting
in blue cold steel
On the blades edge
On thin ice
Breaking up
I say forward
Driving it in
The dagger opening
a deep wound
In the heart
