Her cold embrace

As her frost

Descends on my heart, icy.

Her glaciers move

Crushing the warmth

Of love, rejected.

Sacrificed the love

When not returned

As the love given,

Shaken off, cold shoulders.

Deflecting arrows, Cupid

Knows in remembrance

That time heals all

Keeps trying, believing

As true love fights alone.

...I like this! It shows a tender side of you, in a dashing leading man sort of way. Do you read your poems to your wife?

[andrew mitchell]

Not all !!especially this one ,cos she'll think its about her when its just a write for the one way love contest. Its suppose to portray the female character as cold as ice!!1 lol Thank you Kelly I like Dashing!!!

[John Alexander McFadyen]

I felt you captured the isolation of feeling abandoned and unloved in this flowing verse Andrew.

[andrew mitchell]

Thank you John had to be for the one way love contest lol

cold shoulders definitely deflect Cupid's arrow, and sometimes time does not heal enough...and those arrow's points become sharper but to no avail.

[andrew mitchell]

Yes how true Jacob depending on the armour lol. Thank you Jacob for your review

wow this is very chilly my friend. A love that can be so cold can leave you so very broken. Time does heal though and then make sure and find a warm hearted girlie! lol
