Portraits

The scarlet painting embodies her jewel,
once the pearl of her existance is now frozen;
The frame was sturdy, cold to the touch,
but the warmth that was once there...
adds to her desire, clutching the frame.

The scarlet painting embodies his smile,
was the one to turn a room into his own,
gentle at heart, though sturdy he stands;
the smile that he held...
adds to her desire, releasing, giving unto pain.

The scarlet painting embodies part of herself,
the essence of life, the essence they drew from;
Her heartbeats are less predictible, different...
solemn, she spoke nothing, warmth gone...
her blood danced to the song that her love,
though frozen...
still played.
