A New Year, A New Heart

A new year, a new heart, a new life,
Smiling out the window as your wife.
Content and alone in the icy fortress,
Away from the world of hot distress.

Gone from the life I once cherished,
Invisible as though I had perished.
A 1,000 times I weep without fail,
For the lost love of my Holy Grail.

Harsh lessons weigh heavy on my mind,
I failed to notice or can not find.
How did I miss my one true divine?
Still living as though my life is fine.
