Warmth given off by everyone
Within their hearts burns a radiating flame
The flame of their emotion and very essence
Lighting up their soul

Allured to by the unknown
Intrigued as to why
Hoping to learn and understand
Unknowingly setting myself up for the fall

Abhorred by your burning coldness
Feeling the slow burn slowly consume me
Slowly moving throughout my soul...
Crying out from the Soul attack

Is that all You’ve known?
The burn of the Eternal Ice
Now you are freezing my Essence
To match that of your own.

Your cold flame offers little
Weak you are, Giving into the Coldness
Letting it Ravage your very being without a struggle
Slowly I see the cold flame get colder

I thought everyone had warmth within,
That was until I learned the Truth
Warm has been banished from You
Empty inside...Never will you know the Joys of Life

Slowly the Isolating barrier solidifies around you
Shunning out everything, leaving you to yourself
Drifting out into the cold side joining the lonesome glaciers
Forever being alone, Ice burning the soul and the flame growing colder


 The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship."

--Ralph Waldo Emerson

What a description of a soul ?? being ?? or sent, or going farther out to the cold, or what is within burning colder.
What a description, great!!


Joel.

 I howl a mournful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.

I love imagery and feeling, nothing better than a piece about warmth or coldness...
