Two Broken Hearts
Will we have an early thaw?
The willows run green mid December
My head has been ringing since 1 am
The mouse has found a place to gnaw
At my resolution
At my depleted strength
Today I seal the tomb closed
Filled with my delusion
And another’s guile
Old bitterness, frost, and ice
Good bye my never friend
Until spring, can warmth return
To bind two broken hearts.
