Constance La France Poet Rhyme

Frozen

______________________________________

            My heart is ice frozen,
       with a soul forever winter;
I have seen too much death, each one chosen,
each fate written... oh, I escape in my inner.
I fold my petals-  an ice rose-   and weep,
               I have gone deep;
but, in my dreams I can float to distant shores,
and there I am able to close those deathly doors.

            I lament each beloved,
         flowers gone to Heaven's azure;
names engraved in stone-   names I have so loved,
I feel cheated that I have lost my treasure.
In my heart there is a huge jagged hole,
              frozen is my soul;
oh, will I ever leave this winter so cold,
will my petals thaw before I have grown too old.
