Purity has begun to fall
Floating softly on winter whispers
Falling still falling
Downward into the depths of my heart
Oh window of icy, isolation
Transparent only to the most caring
Tired breath build frozen blinds
Fragile screens erased by artificial warmth
Gifts of holy art battle the distorted sands
Heaven sent for survival on worldly wall
They are fading always changing to tears
Lost never finding an open vessel
Unending forms of out stretched arms sculpted in ice
Melting somewhere in a strangers heart
Casting beacons of veiled light into darkness
Illuminating shadowy souls in a monotone wilderness
Backlit in dark face, the eyes search the madness
A deserted voice reflects from the flat pane
Crying to be one, one with someone.
