The Surrender of Arms of Coldness

Arms of coldness Snatched my soul Robbing boldness From the ultimate goal Serenity strove to achieve In society, in romance on balance Which steadfastness too late to perceive, receive, sieve and deceive Stood in blatant defiance from a dismal distance Coldness couldn’t conceal From torrents of tears That strove to seal the squeal appeal My fate in arrears When boldly I confronted Arrows launched To the dignity assaulted Breached In my heart In my mind In every part of the rambling rampart In which affection never again succor could find However hard Affection sought to assuage pain Sharp as a glass shard Tore in my brain By dint of mounting pressure, coldness raised her white flag Happiness saluted the gesture Choosing not to nag The culture happiness injected into a friendly future.
