Never Felt Before

What is this strange sensation?
This light in my chest,
What is it, life? It could not be,
for my heart has died and left the soul to remain
Gray, cold, cruel and unforgiving but alive.
So with life itself out of the question,
What is this warmth coursing through my blackened veins.
What is this?
Could it be love,
for that feeling, I have never felt before.
