Ice Flakes
A sliver of darkness pierces my heart,
Ice cold, ice blue, tearing me apart
Frosty sensations numb my mind,
Deadening the pain, trailing memories behind.
Innocent shivers of childhood slip down the drain,
As I feel and forget, ice tears washing away the pain.
One by one, my reflection is destroyed,
Shattered pieces in the bin, reflecting the eyes of the boy.
Oh where are you now, my pure sweet child?
With the concrete smile and snow hair that ran wild.
His adorable laugh lingers for a moment too long,
Another tear falls, another memory gone.
Ice flakes envelop the form on the ground,
Turning him pure, guiding him homeward bound.
Haunting innocence lost upon the sands of time,
It is true what they say- it gets colder as you climb.
As I soar above the clouds, lost but free,
I can't help but think, what has happened to me?
Like it? This poem will come to haunt you when you are lost in your worlds…
