The fire that shattered my broken heart

Kindles my sorrows, doesn't let me depart

 

The cold air, directionless, full of unrest

Awaits me with its unwanted zest

 

A hundred voices were calling on my name

Before the night of horror came

 

I've lived so long with these sorrows

With the dim sun, awake in all morrows

 

There came a tide that touched the moon

There smiled a man that was to die soon

 

My drowning soul laughs at me

Yet the howling night cries with me

&quot;You know you&rsquo;re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is &ndash; wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you&rsquo;re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself.&quot;
