Description:this is taken from an original art work of mine, called *My Cold,Cold Heart* I was thinking of a river of tears. A sad and gloomy place like the river styx. *STYX* I look back on my life And see fragments and slivers Hard dangerous shards But sparkling like mirrors Cascading like crystals From a waterfall teeming And spilling and splashing Into turbulent rivers That glitters and shimmers With thousands of rainbows Glinting of prisms trapped in mirrors I can catch my face In the larger pieces But they all have Sharp edges and Dangerous corners And then I see iridescent Opaque and sand blasted Smooth to the touch And calm soothing colours That I can hold in my hand And feel safe and sedated Remembering happier days Searching the sands And screaming delighted To discover a fragment Of opalescent glass The finding of a diamond Could not be greeted with a greater joy While on the beach During a summer's day and I can smile at the memories Of those long ago’s While I gasp at the beauty Of crystal and prism Flashing before me But I feel a sadness In this frozen beauty It pervades the air And as I look closer I realise that each perfect piece Is in the shape of a tear Captured forever Frozen in time Swimming in a sparkling River of fears
