Icy grey attitude
solid, frozen anger;
arrow aimed and shot,
made of crystal cold.
Marbled intensity,
frostbitten fear flying;
missiles strike, war is fought.
emotions uncontrolled.
Diamond desperation
chills to the inward bone.
Hardened spear hits the spot;
icicles of ire scold.
Sandy friction loosens
the grip of iced longing;
trampling all tempting thoughts,
plotting ever to be told.
Leaven raises and is warming,
melts the coldest of hearts;
Love's arrows freely sought
penetrate, defeat cold.
