There I stood, beside a frozen lake
An unexplained fear, a remote ache
An irony of white enveloping the darkness of my mind,
The icy chill trying to suck away the little warmth left behind.
The frost pierced my skin,
like pointy needles on a soft cushion.
The numbness wrapping around me like an armour,
Unfathomable, strong and silver.
All of a sudden everything seemed less human.
The love, my life, a purpose, all forgotten.
Surreal, sublime and subtle the world appeared.
Not one thing did matter, no love, no hatred.
Invincible I felt, with my new found weaponry.
Neither thought nor emotion evading against me.
A monster, not ashamed, unabashed, into, I transformed.
A stone hearted splendour, neither living nor dead.
And the sun did rise, not too bright, not too mellow.
Reflecting from the snow, blinding, warm and yellow.
Melting away the armour I had painstakingly created.
The blood pulsating through my veins, leaving me liberated.
'And the shadow of the day, embraced the world in grey.' - Linkin Park
