Poetry Drafts / 1 January 2023

Crystals from a sunlit strand
touched by the fiery eye,
the hearth melted such a heart
shaped and stretched towards infinity
it now carries the elixir of love,
a potion brewed and bottled
never to be forgotten,
in rain or shine
the crystal crumbs of an empty vial
by every broken heart
— be found
