The lake

Spider web lace, a crown

snow stuck to it and tinkled

All the quiet little sounds.

Crouching in the forests cover

I froze my little heart.

He drowned me in the lake

The scene a work of art.

 

Angels carry swords

And seldom smile or sing

They aren't much for words

They don't wear crowns or rings.

He broke all of my bones

And took all he could take

I froze my little heart

He drowned me in the lake

I screamed and kicked

I tried to flee

He left his dirt

I scrubbed my skin to bleed
