You Lay Cold In A Freezing Heart

 you lay cold on the floor of his heart 

teeth clattering amid pleas

of love 

Yet every morning, he poured cold water 

all over you

knowing how much the water made everything 

worse  

You pleaded him, promised him cute and intelligent 

kids 

But he heard none- he was deaf 

But, then, you survived 

And when you remember how you 

thought you couldn't 

nothing seems impossible 

because there is always a light 

even in the deepest recesses of sorrow
