Loves Eternal Fire Poem by Minnie Gehrig

It seems im losing you,
loose ends,
threads of affection that reach out
into nowhere,
standing in the winter sun,
i shiver n look out towards
clouds pregnant
with snow,
Deliverance is coming,
it looks like blue rivers
the veins of my wrist popping out,
n i trace them with the razors edge of love,
N i sacrifice my heart,
i rip it out and place it on the alter for you,
having no further need of it,
watching coldly from the disconnect,
waiting for the purification
of loves eternal fire......................
