A Plea For Love

A Plea For Love My chest is a toomb for my broken heart, Covered by dust in every part... in blankets, made not by a loom, Smothered in the dark. Tangled webs of mist haunt this vacant grave with echos from a reckless knave Regailing some heroic list Pity cannot save. Is there not a rose For this heart to beat of petals soft and smell so sweet To open up what death did close... Ressurrect...Complete...? ~Deborah Burch 03/11/12~©
