Love Poem: A Frozen King

A Frozen King

This realm of steel ice can get unbearable
Everything that I am is locked inside a sub-tolerant shell
Captured away from the visible grounds I had roamed
Seen countless opportunities and yet they passed by and lost
I can say I was born ahead of my time; if it were possible
Then why could not I exist in the next 20 years
Here I am with a mature heart in a misshapen body
An exposed body dictating and outweighing my crippled mind
My kingdom feels empty in these shady concrete layers
And vulnerable of not having my possible righteous queen
I say hello, pardon me and such but they were all ignored somehow
So every shatter I get, the pieces remain the make me stare
Lets me remember how my kind is getting extinct by the constant
A man’s thoughts are no more appealing for their ears
Then many would question why I’m in these ways of silence
Well the point I am soundless is because your ears are closed
So there’s no point to acknowledge when you don’t want to open
Therefore here’s another monument of what a loyal man should be
Here stands the king of a thousand wishes for all time
Until there is that one woman who can make them come true
Who pauses out of time and gaze into these eyes
She’ll look for what I venture for when I stare into hers
My hearts hopes for her precious love to melt me free
Free from this banishment and finally crown my only love highness
