Layered Love

Virginia Gaces
The sun ablaze in all its shining crown,

has tendered all the love that I have owned,

I looked up to the sky and plead in vain

but rain poured down and drowned my cries of pain.

I am as sturdy now and cold as ice

The layered walls I built around abounds

the memories are gone and in there lies

a gelid heart that only I have found.

But drifting slowly I now realize

The gossamer wings had to take the flight

And flutter or else the fight is over

a final blow on my granite tombstone.
