New Heart
She came from
across the sea
Wounded to her soul
Like a sparrow with
broken wing.
Sadness in her eyes
for all to see.
She is to live
alone
In the house of the
who came before
Hoping to mend and
live again.
Walking through the
door
She feels that she
has at last come home
Bringing life to a
new heart.
She wanders the
sands along the shore
Breathing the air
of long ago
Hearing whispers of
Faeries of lore
Letting it make her
strong
She sees the ghost
Of the one who came
before
Watching the tears
flow.
Feeling the pain of
love lost
So long ago.
She looks in the
eyes of fire
Feeling the heat of
desire.
History will repeat
As he cannot give
her all she needs
To fill her new
heart.
She visits the
grave
Of the one who came
before
Whispering her
hopes and dreams.
Telling of the love
beginning to grow
In her heart.
Sitting on the
stone
She finds the king
of Faeries
Looking lost and
alone.
He begins to tell
her of his woes.
He tells how he
stole
The fire of the sun
To make her his own
How they fell to
the ground
And began to bloom
Heralding his doom.
With tears in her
eyes
She tries to
explain
The emptiness and
pain
That can not be
healed
By sparkling
things.
His voice filled
with rage
Brings on the rain
As he anger unfolds
He still cannot see
Where he went wrong
He fades away.
Leaving her a heavy
heart.
Kneeling on the
ground
Looking at the
blooms
She finds one
diamond lying alone
She takes it to her
breast
With a prayer that
the magic
Will bring a love
for her own.
To fill her lonely
heart.
