Ice Queen

Her fingertips trailing leave you breathless,
You try to plead but she has to go,
You don’t understand, she says “don’t worry”,
Her eyes grow dark and you don’t want to know,

She’s something other than her saint’s expression,
She’s got a secret that she’ll kill to hide,
She’s gonna leave dead, broken and freezing,
If you touch the thing that sleeps inside,

In the darkness while she’s sleeping,
You try to lift the mask again,
But her touch leaves you paralysed,
There’s ice beneath her skin,
She’ll breath her dark frost into you,
Boy, she’ll make your head spin,
You can try to face the cold,
But boy, you’ll never win, never win,

Whispers in your ear, an old beginning,
Feel her moving in the dead of night,
She’s yours while the dark is here,
She’ll be gone with the morning light,

There’s something underneath her perfect outlook,
She’s got a secret that she’ll kill to keep,
And you know that eyes, cold and heartless,
Are watching you, boy, when you sleep,

In the darkness while she’s sleeping,
You try to lift the mask again,
But her touch leaves you paralysed,
There’s ice beneath her skin,
She’ll breath her dark frost into you,
Boy, she’ll make your head spin,
You can try to face the cold,
But boy, you’ll never win, never win,

When you catch her eye, you can’t resist,
She’ll freeze your heart with her cold kiss,
If the Ice Queen chooses you, you’re dead,
Stretched out cold across her bed,
Boy, you know she won’t leave you alive,
To keep it hidden, none must survive,

In the darkness while she’s sleeping,
You try to lift the mask again,
But her touch leaves you paralysed,
There’s ice beneath her skin,
She’ll breath her dark frost into you,
Boy, she’ll make your head spin,
You can try to face the cold,
But boy, you’ll never win, never win,

You're a true poet Katie, everything you write is just a pleasure to read, and this reads like sheer perfection

Haha, if you say so Thank you!!

I love this. The Ice/Snow Queen fairytale has always been a great source of inspiration. Have you seen the relative film? I can't forget that scene where a piece of glass gets in the eye of the boy.
