Bingo!

by me, October 2005

The coldness in his heart

Burned the deepest hole in mine

The icy indifference in his eyes

Only served to wound, to scald, to

Send me into endless pain.

I begged for warmth,

A respite from the burning, biting ache

That plagued me.

Yet the winter stretched far too long

Soon the frostbite that ensued

Enveloped my heart and crushed it

Crushing too the embers that

Still glowed with warmth and love

For the coldness in his heart

Had found its mark

And burned the deepest hole in mine.
