Molten Heart of Stone and Ice
Cold
Rugged and rough
Made of hard blistering stone
With layers of and layers of shells
Cold hard rugged shells
Tougher then steel
Colder then ice
Thats my heart
Atleast it was..
Yet,
with all that necessary protection
you still manage to get inside.
You melted all the ice
Broke all the steel
Unlocked all the locks
Smashed all the walls
Cracked each shell
And decided to dwell inside.
Even with each protest
I couldn't resist
With every reluctant step
I couldn't resist
I couldn't resist
how you made me feel.
And the fact that I could feel
After so many days spent
in a labarynthe of frozen emotions
I COULD FEEL!
With you I can feel again.
My lips curved into an upside down arc
My cheeks rose to impeccable heights.
My non- chalant fasade dissapeared
It was obvious I cared
You made me care
You made me feel
You made me love
With you I miraculously feel again
And you were so quick to abrogate
what I wanted most.
Even through all the pain she smiled
I didnt know how she did it
Me
I cried
I protested silently fror what I want
Loud enough for me to acknowledge
But silent enough so you don't
She acted like she didnt care
Her preformance was flawless
No wonder shes considered and actress
But me I fell apart
Day after day slowly
fixing my heart
Gluing the cracked shells
Mending the steel
Freezing the ice to outline it again
But each time I tried you just broke it all again
It was no use mending the pieces
You would just smash through them
and live in my heart
This never ever ending cycle
I knew forever in my heart you would remain.
Finally I gave up fixing
And gave up breaking
I couldnt help
feeling
and
feeling
Love
Happiness
Sorrow
Bliss
Ignorance
Regret
Shame
Hopeless
Hopeful
You cursed me
I was fine and perfectly
non-human.
Human!
Thats how u make me feel
You make me feel
With you I can feel again
Now I do nothing but feel
Feel everything
that only weakens yet strengthens my heart.
You make me feel.
My
Cold
Rugged and rough
Made of hard blistering stone
With layers of and layers of shells
Cold hard rugged shells
Tougher then steel
Colder then ice
heart
can feel.
With you I feel.
So I guess I will have to feel
as long as I'm with you.
With you feel again.
