Ice Queen | Early Poems Poem by Ana Maria Alma Delafuente

Blow wind bow;
Fall snow fall;
Form ice form.

Encapsulate me.

Take the feeling from my nerves;
Bring my pulse to a halt;
Let me not know pain.

Lay me down in winter white;
Grant me with sleep of the arctic lost.

Dull my mind;
Numb my spirit;
Erase my senses.

Hush now heart!
Your time has gone.
You are no more.
I build my castle of ice and snow
Within you,
And around you.
The palace walls will be strong and beautiful,
And no one shall ever breach the gate.

Ah my love,
What will we do?
Now that we have known this love,
Can we continue on earth without it?

Ah my love,
We may yet live,
But only as statues of ice and stone.
