Locked away in my ice cavern
My lips turned steel blue
I shiver uncontrollably
As life seeps slowly away
Tears turned to frozen stream
That lay upon my cheeks
Sparkling in the cold sun
That can no longer warm
Nor illuminate my hopes
A dream or vision of death?
No, worse yet than death
Who calls with icy breath
From the shadows of my cave
"Come to me quickly now
And forget this suffering
That torments you in this place"
BE GONE YOU SPECTER!
Tempt me not with false hope
Not whilst loves fire still burns
Here, deep within my chest
For I can feel love still
Remaining here, waiting
Knowing one will someday come
With loves fire in her breast
To melt these ice bound shackles
And soar with me upward
Away from this forsaken place
That my mind has taken me to
In my hour of loneliness.
