Ice Maiden
Not out of snow or rain frozenNot out of any of nature's giftsI made an ice maidenBut it was the lonely freakWalking in my headThat first shaped and loved himLater when cocksure it movesThrough pubs and roomsAnd stops to glance at herIt means nothing clearOnly those who surround itSees for what they areYou missed the sunflowers at their height,Came back when they were bent and wornAnd the gnats, half-froze, fell one by oneInto the last of the sprawling marigolds.Sleeping beside you I dreamt I wokeDreamt I woke beside youWaking beside you I thought I'mThought I'm only dreamingSleeping beside you I dreamt I wokeDreamt I woke beside youWaking beside you I thought I mightThought I might be dreaming
