inside the heart's vault

inside the heart's vault

A Poem by jacob erin-cilberto


inside the heart's vault


there are imprints on the white
a poet's signature
in snowy times

blissful blizzard of words
uncompromising utopia
in a wearisome winter's tale

something to sled us through
the harsh biting winds
to a safe deposit box

filled with soft sentiments
to assuage the acrimonious
disharmony falling from a foolish sky.

Just don't lock up all of your words inside of that box.
Unthaw some and keep writing. Valentine

So good to hear the mentioning your deposit box in this frozen world. There are winters for sure, but it makes the summers that much more vibrant and hot even!
