Love and loss

When Love is Lost

When love is lost
The molten core of your heart begins to erupt
Rivers begin to flow from your eyes
Your throat constricts, as a snake would constrict its prey
Your voice cries the pain of a thousand souls
When love is lost
Your world turns into a firestorm
But under the earth there is planted, a rotting seed
and from the ashes of your thought springs forth a sappling
Joyfully it grows amongst the ruins of your pain
And one day it will become a peaceful lush meadow
And your thought will once again live in a fruitful valley.
