Ice Queen

She was angry.
Sitting in an otherwise empty compartment - the intent of catharsis
Was to quell the memory of the breathless departed
Some escape, if you still remain an enemy's target
She thought - some escape if you don't even understand
The sacrifice represented by their mother and
Their father, she was screaming "You're so lucky, Dan!
Just SO Fucking luck you don't know what's happened"
Yelling in anguish at the baby that was tucked in her lap-

She could feel the shadows of benediction's flight
Underneath ghostly mountains, hidden in white
Lit by the infinite lights across the weight of the galaxy
Bearing down on them, this particular shading of apathy
Was a dentist with a drill - boring cratering cavities
Creation's starry machinery - components in matrix catastrophe
"I know it's hard to believe in me," she reached a reasonable level
of volume. Still weeping, but no longer seething in treble
"By autumn, this will seem a fever dream with a devil
At the end of it" She could speak with obsequious mettle
But still too young to speak over the sudden screams of the metal
Screeching as it careens through the weather - blizzarding storms
Outside, a Nordic castle, couldn't be seen for a minute or more
"In there the Ice Queen sits," she prepared a riveting score
"With mommy and daddy" - the sky screamed viciously, torn asunder
By hail and roaring thunder "When they're bowling together
The sky goes boom" As the castle meets the horizon
Replaced by the actual memory of thieves in the twilight
Clad black, they attacked - it was so dreamy yet vibrant
The evil assailants - dragged their parents weeping and crying
Them tucked beneath the floorboards, in needy defiance
Their breathing was quiet - until the stomping had ceased
A small gasp of release, but the problem remained
So out the backdoor, through the woods, quietly on to the train..

By the hellish ***ophony, her story was drowned
Life's dreadful ***kles growing into thundering sounds
As she wondered aloud "Will this go back to normal soon?"
She felt singled out and mocked by the orbiting moon
The world in consortium, ignoring her, as she flailed in the dark
She thought, when Dan grows up, a collection of various scars
And the tears on her heart will be all that he knows of her
This awful implosion of home will still be all that he knows
The globes nonchalant autonomy, over the evil physics of man
"Why did this have to happen.." she was miserable, and
She knew she would always be thinking of a time she was innocent
She will always scream to the sky, knowing the silence is infinite
