Notice of absence from Qurrathul Ain
I'm taking a break for a while, for no specific reason. Maybe because, I don't get as much inspirations as I used to.

Several feet below,
Layers and layers of white cold snow,
Lies my heart,
Beating and thumping faintly,
On the brink of giving up mostly,
A little alive but burdened heavily.
In the depths of winter,
When everything is cold and lifeless,
I have survived on and on,
For I managed to find beauty,
Even in the flakes, the melting purity,
The dead living and my heart that is crying,
Even when it was suffocating.
Several feet below,
Layers and layers of,
Freezing bitter ice,
Is where my heart lies,
Barely alive,
Waiting for a warm heart of thine,
To collide with mine.

Powerful work.
Thank you
Nicely written this poem expresses what many feel. But remember that a heart on ice is preserved and does not rot.
That's a positive take. Thank you for that reminder.
Great poem. I find it hard without inspiration but that prompt must have been good.
Thank you. Prompts usually don't tempt me to write. But at the time, I was out of things to write so.
