Frost

by EoB   Sep 26, 2007


I found no rest in sleeping
for I dreamt the dream again.
I could not see the horizon
through curtains of bitter rain.

The ocean did dance in terror,
as lightning shattered the trees.
Though wind drove the clouds into panic
I felt not the slightest breeze.

Around me the earth erupted
in flames with a deafening crash,
yet nothing could stir my attention
as I stood on the burning ash.

For nothing can hurt what is frozen,
and frost does not weep, lest it dies,
thus nothing can pain me whilst dreaming,
for in my dreams I am ice.

    A very deviating and heartbreaking piece.. though a very enjoyable read...

    "The ocean did dance in terror,
    as lightning shattered the trees.
    Though wind drove the clouds into panic
    I felt not the slightest breeze."

    Really enjoyed this stanza, elegantly expressed for such a hunting poem.. Loved it
