A Cold Heart
By Artanis
The cold of the night doth seep through my veins though i hold the warmth
of a heart in my hands.
The cold doth seep, boring deeper
and deeper into my body. I begin to feel an emptiness, my body becoming
a pit of darkness....
I welcomed it in the beginning. The emptiness
first consuming me when i tore out my own heart. I wanted nothing more
than to be heartless. To feel nothing...
Though i feel something
still. I feel the cold. I feel my heart beating, free from the prison within
a human body. My heart is not my own. It belongs to Night...
But
Night cannot stretch her fingers out to take it. I must keep the heart.
I must carry the burden of this broken muscle until i am frozen into the
soil. Earth and Sky shall both be taking pieces of me. But Death is not
welcome, i did not ask for this.
Oh, but i did. I had forgotten
what made this night so cold. What had made me so cold.
I stopped
caring for those around me, stopped loving them as i should. I tore out
my heart to end this life that was now so worthless for the evil that i
became...
And so i have been brought to my knees.
My body turns to dust.....
Author's Note:
This initially only was the first line of the story until i decided to add to it later. This is kinda going back to the style i usually write in.Comments on "A Cold Heart"
