Ice Queen

He loved a girl, his queen of ice.
Pink frosty mouth and cold-blue eyes,
With frozen smile, indifferent gaze,
With blank expression on her face.

He loved her, she remained aloof.
He sang to her, she wouldn't move
And all he tried to keep her warm
Nothing would melt her icy form.

Upon his skin her chilly breath,
He begged to feel her kiss of death
And as he touched her curles of snow
She burned him cold from head to toe.

Once he gave up, he blamed all on
Her heart - a chunk of frozen stone
Thinking he saw right through the ice
Blinded by love to realise...

Her heart was vibrant but misplaced
Sadly, it burned for someone else.
Her frosty coat - none but disguise,
She never was a queen of ice.


Dedicated to my ex best friend, you never really knew me...

Don't wanna dance if he can't be
Everything that I dream up
A man that understands real love"

Hi LM. This is cool all be it sad. I kinda feel sorry for the dude but know what it like to have your heart belong to another. It's not good for anybody involved. I'd say go where your heart leads you. And if he dosen't feel the same way remove him from you heart so that somebody else might have a chance. Great piece!

Her heart - a chunk of frozen stone

This makes me think of my best friend. For some reason just this line. Maybe cause I feel as if her heart is made of stone. She has been so cold hearted to me lately that I could write a book about it.

Once upon a time there was a light in my life, now theres only love in the dark, There's nothing I can do, a total eclipse of the heart.

ERIN: thanks hon for stopping by to read and comment. I'm glad you found something you relate to.

Bluebrdy: Thank you, I'm really flattered  

Jesse: I just love it when you stop by, thank you for reading and sayind such nice things. I'll e-mail you for sure!

Snowdwen: Thanks for the reply. I wasn't betrayed, he just gave up on me and blamed me for the whole thing... And I don't agree with the accusations, he said I played the "ice queen" for too long, but I'm so far from being cold, I just didn't love HIM.

Take Care everybody!

Well done.

Wow.  This poem was just...awesome! (for lack of better words).  It hits close to home, and it's sad how sometimes people mistake one thing for another.  Very sad...

Megs


I was never one to patiently pick up broken fragments and glue them together again and tell myself that the mended whole was as good as new. What is broken is broken- and I'd rather remember it as it was at its best than mend it and see the broken places as long as I lived.

LM this is an icy piece of work you have wrought I can almost feel its jagged edges cutting me to the quick.

Night Chick: Thank you for stopping by to read and for the lovely comment. It's true, misunderstandings are the key to ruin every relationship... This one was not an exception.

Kethry: I'm glad you could feel it, those words were like an ice dagger in my heart to me too... Thanks for the comment!
