Frozen

Frozen

Frozen in time is the angry heart;
The anti-Valentine,
Keeping those who love apart,
For a held proud state of mind.

So close it is to a lover’s day,
Won’t you soften the resentful freeze,
Come close to me while you may,
Or I will be frozen, too, with thee.

What a real life love poem - pride and stubbornness does not go hand in hand with love, a simple sorry does it all, especially when love is in the air and swirling all around - one last try to a heart that you hope will soften! Great poem, Poetry hugs, Jennifer.

As cold of a poem this sounds at first, it surely warms a heart in the end. Very nice SW. Charlie

'Frozen in time is the angry heart' -- I believe that! And I like your urging the frozen heart to go heal! Very nice piece!
