I can only feel my throbbing heart, <br />And under the shades of night, <br />My eyes are wetting with sorrow, <br />After all the rapture and the pride, <br />I'm alone again without you, <br />My mind is icy with shock, <br />My mouth numb and dry, <br />I am desperste for some solstice, <br />That will carry me through, <br />My next wakeing moments on this world, <br />And they say the heart is true, <br />Well it is blind to me, <br />And will not even speak to lie, <br />Drawn towards perfection, <br />Passionless though it was, <br />And i am meek to surrender, <br />But the frosty words hsve cut, <br />My feeble shattered heart, <br />And i can only stand and stare, <br />For want of something beautiful, <br />And though my mind resorts to negligence, <br />And though my memory obscure your vision, <br />Mine eyes have seen you, <br />Lost as i was and hopeless, <br />I can never draw you near again, <br />For i am deserted, <br />Stolen to complacency, <br />And all torments of the flesh, <br />I have been, <br />Left in the cold.<br /><br />Nick Hilton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/left-in-the-cold/
