Ebony Heart Poem by Avery Eglantine

How illuminating lights may turn,
Though painful it may burn.
Enticing glamor, lesson be learned
Yet respect'll never be earned.

The ebony heart; black as coal,
Yonder be the tormented sole.
Unseen still be thy lonely soul,
freezing frightened in icy pole.

The flowers unseen on its early bloom,
In silence never felt a bit of gloom.
The unnoticed flora had never groom,
though her hope rose high, still in resume.

Shine, shine goes these broken glass,
Precious value it never has.
Fume it brought was poison gas
and only curse in return it cast.
