[QUOTE="Bhryn Astairre, post: 2562304"] [b]Frail Heart[/b] You'd think a heart would be dead In a cavern left so cold. That frailties of knowing life Would break the dying mould. A love to make or break the soul Would shake or sign the deal? Or perhaps a tender kiss Would be just what it feels? You'd think the way they come and go A heart without time would see; That mortal means and mortal life Is to immortal, frailty. A demon may not see the signs But know the dangers held. An angel step across the borders By knowing the tricky spell. You'd think that passing on Would be a simple affair at best. But mortals cannot ever know The feelings that will wrest Upon an immortal heart For all the love and trust they give: Never once imagining Their focus will not live. You'd think by now with every belief The timeless heart would die: That living in a world so brief Under ever changing skies Would be the end and making of The grave for its darkened beat. That whatever gave it life or love Was with cold replaced the heat. You'd think by now a lesson made Is taught and learned so well? But perhaps the timeless heart Is too a stubborn shell. Inside there lies the endless pain And forever the lonely regret. The memories of people passed on by Are by fondness, ever offset. You'd think by now the truth would be An advserity to endure. Or that a surgeon with skillful blade Find a reasonable cure. But the dream continues on And from shattered death, revive! Alas the immortal who binds herself With frail heart to such mortal lives.
