Click hereIt was long ago,
and in a strange land,
and besides the wench
is dead.
Is that all that is to be
said of a woman whose
beauty ruined herself
and a nation?
In her eyes there was
a sadness which I saw
briefly lift a moment
before night fell.
She was shrouded in winter
and shrouds seemed
and were
what was needful.
Our loving, meteor-like
across one night’s sky
before falling to earth
forever.
I wished her well
but did her wrong,
but Fate was inexorable
she did that.
To be born to position
she could not uphold,
men wanted her
but not for herself.
For herself, I wanted
her, for naught else,
and frozen in time she fades
the Winter Queen.
