Bewilder

A drowned fool's heart yells quiet words that should

leave my love to drift on a desert sea

cast and hear myriad storms shrieking could

make deaf ears bend a vigorous plea

shredding softness blissfully streaming down

red armoured defence swiftly did vanquish

blistered heart beating a bewildered pound

banished the ghosts of old creeping anguish

I'm a feather and the cold winds' victim

riding terms of his disentanglement

blindingly indulging his thankless whim

traitorous heart fracture made imminent.

chattering cold the heat-searing pain blasts

in a place where hearts have thundered their last.
