Blood Hearts

My heart was filled 
with haunting pain, 
as you ripped at my soul

I ask you to understand 
yet, from you no love 
have I ever known

The pressure was great 
within those veins 
but you never knew

You’ve chilled this blood 
that once ran hot 
when I spoke your name

Yet with time 
my heart won’t hurt 
for ice now flows within

Tell me not, you don’t understand 
for our hearts 
are now the same

Interesting how we become that which we fear. As this one is chilled, does the other get warmed, however infinitesimally, I wonder?

One would have to be on the other side to know.
To one there might be nothing but ice
Yet for another passion might glow.
Still one day the one might be hot
the other cold.
