My Heart and Soul Cleft
Lonely bench weeps beneath me
Trees whistle their sorrow
Flowers' petals folded inward
Will dawn come tomorrow
Birds' songs have been silenced
Hark -- famished dogs bay
The skies bring forth darkness
Moon and stars sent away
For you've vanished again
Not a trace of you left
Your reasons not given
My heart and soul cleft...
Thick snowflakes are swirling
Soon icicles form
Love's winter's descended
Harsh and forlorn
