This Frozen Heart


As daylight meets darkness
temperatures plunge.
Flickering flames from scented candles
lick the air.
Roaring fires tame the frost.
Neatly folded afghans
rest invitingly upon the sofa's arm.
A slight hint of hot cocoa fills the air,
tantalizing the senses,
inviting warmth and comfort.
Fuzzy slippers rest askew
beside the hearth.
I shiver uncontrollably
awaiting your imminent arrival.
No raging fire, nor thickest blanket
can melt the frost within me.
The obvious comforts of home
offer me no solace.
My frigid heart is thawed only
by the deepest warmth and love
I feel from you.
