Pillar of Ice
You stand there proud and arrogant
but I know you hurt inside
Your eyes are hard and callous
and the twinkle there has died.
I stand here weak and humble
as I watch you drift away;
My eyes are moist and sad
as I see your cruel display.
We stand together awkwardly
as strangers who’ve just met
Our love is dying slowly
but the battle’s not over yet.
Our love has become a pillar of ice
exposed to wind and rain;
But soon the melting sun will come
and we shall love again. ©
