Somber Icy Spectacle

Dark and Deep
Darker and Deeper
Immersed am I in these waters.

I see no light
For there is no light
That extends to the waters I drift.

You know the sting of frost you feel when the wind has pinned your warmth?

I live in that cold.
I breathe in that ice.
Trillions of stings make my skin,
But somehow is does not define me.
I follow through with the prickly sheets
that beat the sands against themselves.
Though existing within tsunamis of cold
they do not engulf me and pass.
I fall behind the waves forsaken,
Distilled from their momentum.
The frost bites me once more.

PFFT! i love ALL your lines! this one's just fun to quote :D it seems so deep and romantic in a way "i live in that cold, i breath in that ice" ahhh love it! :D

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
