Her Last Winter

For Contest: Free Verse






So cold her lips speechless
to soon forgotten loves warmth 
Emptied heart frozen
Pastel rainbows sightless
Darkened clouds dripping overhead
Acid rain remover of all tenderness
wounds bleeding quickly
frozen as candied apples shinning
A soul lay dying with no renewal
of seasons awaiting
Thoughts to painful to keep
simply vanish in the thaw
her last winter...
