Lullaby (a glacier of frozen tears)

                                                                LULLABY
                                                          (A Glacier of Tears)

A hidden tear drop
Buried deep
Let it sleep
Frozen in time
An icile of crime!

Do not cry, not even sigh,
As a lullaby plays softly nearby,
To a child that no longer is,
Maybe never was.
In the dark the ice grows stronger!

So muffle those tears,
Harden them with the pain filled years,
The innocence dies
As the lullaby rolls by.
Darkness comes, child is lost!

The ice encompasses heart and mind,
What if it melts, destruction will be left behind.
Stay behind the glacial wall,
Keep strength, don't let the tear fall.
Once it falls, an unending torrent will come!

So, lost child,
Play that lullaby,
But do NOT cry,
Keep those tears
And those fears,
Deep, where they belong.
