'Lonely Heart' by A Bermudez

Lonely Heart

Winter´s cold fingers grip
a breath can be seen leaving the lips
this room is just as cold
as the inner depths of the soul

No glimmer nor light can be seen
as the frost settles making all gleam
releasing any warmth left
in a room of color bereft

Emptiness abounds
as the cold air surrounds
there are only frozen memories and emotions
soon to become only notions

As the winter comes to an end
no warmth or spring comes to transcend
for the cold has come to stay
capturing a victim as its prey

As the flowers seem to surround
no life is felt to be found
no warmth or love in this soul
that a spring day could console

A tear has frozen in time
of pity not sublime
on a cheek so tired and drawn
from begging for love now gone

As the day leads to the night
there is no hope for the plight
of turning a heart now cold
warm from feelings and love untold
