Frozen in time she stays
Pain in her eyes unmasked
Roses tumbling out of her hair
She was called the queen of love
Many couples matched by this cupid
But none saw the agony behind her smile
Nobody asked her for her story
If they had, they would have known
Nothing hurts more than unrequited love
Her heart belonged only to him
But his heart was always another's
At night she would howl out his name
He never came, she stood waiting
Many days and many nights
To catch a glimpse of him
Yet he remained hidden in the shadows
Now they see her as endless beauty
Melancholy in her eyes
Waiting to be thawed
To come back to life
To breathe once again
To love just once more
How do I know this?
In her I see me..,

Beauty dipped in melancholy! Sad but unrequited love often devours the soul that feeds it :/
