Anger


A twist of anger, 
she will hold on to like 
a blanket of comfort. 
The mistake was in 
her own beliefs. 
The twist gets tighter
her looks get 
colder
and one day 
before she knows it
ice has replaced what 
was once her heart. 
Coldness now her 
comfort. 
Anger is bittersweet. 
It takes shape and forms 
a shield 
that will keep 
everyone at bay. 
Her heart 
of ice
like a tiara she 
used to wear. 
Cold and 
hardened by winter's 
unveiling. 
Anger controls and 
takes hold. 
It destroys everything 
in its path. 
She only asked for one 
thing, the one 
thing she holds dear. 
For a moment,
all was clear and the sun
started to warm the cold,
but in a moment, 
she froze.
One sentence, one word
and 
she can't undo 
what has been done.
She hears the whisper, but 
refuses to accept the title 
once again. 
To wear the title like
a crown, 
means to once again
keep her heart hardened 
and cold. 
The title that once 
protected her 
only to let her down. 
Yet it whispers and calls to her
She knows she will 
wear it
even knowing what 
it means.
