Valley of Cold

~~~~~

Walking in a valley of cold,

I felt my heart unfold.

It froze

It shivered

Trying to stay warm.

Beating, never giving up

Then I felt your sunny blaze

Like the sun, you were melting the ice in the far distance.

I ran.

faster and faster,

One foot in front of the other,

I ran.

My freezing heart melted from how fast it was beating.

My spilling blood weaved into a red scarf that traced behind me into the past.

You were looking

And smiling,

All too warmly.

But before I knew,

I was falling.

My scarf choking,

straining,

killing me.

I fell, face in snow

I watched you go.

I wanted to follow 

I needed to follow.

But you were gone

Along with your sun

The damage was done

I was alone, there's no one

In this barren land.

In this hopeless place.

Just me, waiting for the end of my days.

So here I was,

Laying in a valley of cold,

Listening to my heart unfold.

It froze

It shivered

Abandoning warmth.

Halting, finally giving up
