In the candle dim darkness Stands a silhouette figure Standing rigid in the cold In her heart, no hope lingers The fierce wind shrieks in her ear The din, too unbearable to stand Unstopping it is and free it blows As it chills everything on the land The stale wind continues to blow Inhale a breathe of air she did But immediately let it out For the blood-like taste was so putrid The hair so brittle and dry Fights against the wind The strands so thin Reflects silver from within Lifeless blood-shot eyes glares out Not in anger, but grief and pain They had seen so much they didn’t want The eyes can't hide their distain Her heart was once filled with fervor and zeal But now blackness and ice teems For her hope had washed away No longer to return in reality or dreams A single, solitary tear turns to ice As it slowly trails down like Death’s kiss So sharp like a dagger of cold steel A dagger that’d pierce her heart with sheer bliss The loneliness in the air swirls around catching her by the throat suffication being unbarable her mind suddenly awoke Life being dark With the knowledge of what is near Voices out her pain to the supreme above Making it loud and clear She parts her pale, chapped lips Her voice, dismal and grim Defiantly shouts out loud With some words of malediction “Heartless Fates, go away and rejoice I own nothing worth to steal or to be your reward You have taken all I love and treasure dear So sharpen your shears and cut my cord.” |
