Someone to own her
Hold her tight
Images of love dancing through the night.
Memories holding her back
Making it impossible for her to let go
Entrapping her spirit
Raging at her soul.
Iridescent shreds of a broken heart
Naked, crying before the world
Giving in to the eternal cold.
Night caressing her shivering skin
Icy tendrils grasping her from within
Gnashing at the love she had left
Holding firmly
Thrashing with fingers so deft.
Jarring her from her peaceful world
Eternal longing, searching
Waiting as her life unfurls
Everlasting love beyond her grasp
Living with her heart encased in a visceral grasp.

easy i dont know about but when i saw yours, how beautiful it was and how the words seemed to flow from your pen, i wanted to give it a try so lol my pretty little strap on encouraged me to try something new. thank you for the encouragement, now i am scared to read any more of your words for fear i may try to copy you again and really get deep over my head.
