ICE

I am Ice,
I am glacial fire
burning cold.
My touch is frost,
Winter - my domain.

Laughter tried to lift
the leaden weight
that burdens my hollow soul,
But cool rationality
pierced its fragile wings.
Now it cannot fly.

Still I am Ice,
I am glacial fire
burning cold.
My touch is frost,
winter - my domain.

Sorrow tried to thaw
the arctic rivers of my tears,
But I am cold
that admits no human touch,
Glacial indifference withers
even Sorrow's healing touch.

And I am Ice,
I am glacial fire
burning cold.
My touch is frost,
Winter - my domain.

Passion tried to warm
this ice cold heart,
But its arid fires
needs fuel to burn;
it found no kindling
in my barren soul.

For I am Ice,
I am glacial fire
burning cold.
My touch is frost,
Winter - my domain.
