Freeze

Words have dried up completely 

No thoughts or feelings to share

Nothing of emotions remains here

All is like the desert sand loose and grey

 

Gates are closed within confines

The soul seeks no pleasure now

There's no release awaited no sadness stays

Everything frozen as in the glaciers white and grey

 

No wind of love that blows any happiness 

Nothing seems to be moving, all stuck in here 

Boundaries and barracks all swept away

As if in a war zone there's no pleasure, only pain

Truly yours forever and ever till eternity 💓 ❤ 💖 ►

A wind of change
sunshine love blowing strong
writing words sending
sadness far far away.
