glass heart
By FadedBlues
heart of glass, reflecting love
like a mirror, we can see
within its brightwork, you and me
heart of glass, reflecting love
treasures come and treasures pass
like a sky from dark to blue
like a poem standing true
a work of art, this heart of glass
not of iron, nor of stone
not of stardust, nor of wax
it, beauty holds, but strength it lacks
a heart of glass can’t beat alone
a heart of glass will trust the rain
a man should live a hundred years
and never taste those bitter tears
with love, a crystal walled domain
a heart of glass can hold a vow
a gentle dream, if we forsake
a heart of glass was made to break…
heart of glass
is shattered now

reminds me of snow white for some reason and the fragility of the things we take most for granted. i am shattered, too. this has a chime-like orchestral flow to it. fitting and sorrowful. "my heart is broke. i have some glue." but it's never quite the same, is it?

Precious hearts,.... ice hearts melt, to be replaced, by hearts of glass. Solid glass, or ruby gem? Perhaps it will not shatter then, only chip , or be engraved, polished to shine and glisten, when the heart is saved. X x x x

maybe it's too much to ask for, a perfect heart of glass.

Pyrex is unbraekable with temperature extremes. But I think the breaking is part of the making process, as we become beings betond the animal instincts that clamor for control, cheers!

Everyone wants a heart of stone, diamonds, rubies or a precious heart , gold, platinum. Always a mineral heart. , But you Oh! No, you want the real one, glass, the only one that can be broken.

they are made to be broken and also need to be handled with care, although one can endure more than thought before its shatters into tiny fragmented pieces...
