poethree:new poems:"no cold heart."

“No cold heart.”
She is rock n roll and crystal fires
The rising tide of an evening desire
A house to get lost in
To find a shape in
To move from room to room
To find wonder and wind
To leave always altered
Much more like yourself
Because you are free and whole and without a care
You dare
To show up as you
And no one else
But there is a price to pay
You will never be cold again
Warmth is your destiny and your curse
Your course
You will never be unaffected again
You will feel pain if there is loss
You will have
No cold heart
Any more

There will be no real turning away
By coming in you will never go out
You can wail and shout
It will sound like a laugh
And you will be ignored
No Samaritan will come to your aid
Beaten, broken, cast aside
Your scars will come out
Unable to hide
This is the destiny of the vulnerable love
You will not be able
To be cold
Warm your nights will forever be
In dreams or nightmares
No cold heart
Any more

I know you think this is what you want
But, think again
Are you really sure?
Being unaffected can be a beautiful thing
To be aloof is the pride of fools
To be together in form is a beautiful escape
To look sharp is the key
Who want s to be undressed by the soul?
To be laid bare by God?
If you follow this it will change you
Into the face of a bloodied madman
You will join the league of idiots
That want to change the world
They call them love-fools for a reason
In pain and in deep distress
They cannot have
Cold hearts
Any more

Yet, she is rock n roll
And crystal fires
The secret path to all my desires
Earth moves under me
And I see
Things I thought were merely dreams
Come into brilliant focus
Hocus-pocus
Made real
I tell you to run
But I will run no more
I tell you not to run
Until you find
The place where
Your heart is
Warm forever
And the seconds are divided
Clearly
Into light and dark
What is yours
And what is hers
And the beautiful thing in between
Final completeness
To everything.
