There he sat 'neath the cherry tree,
Drowning in ice cold misery.
His heart was pumping out pain and ache,
While time was beginning to fade.

Eyes heavy with sorrow,
Not wanting to see the morrow.
A mist of dreams poured over him,
Making him numb from limb to limb.

His ice princess is surrounded,
Gasping for breath, her heart pounded.
Chasing her was an ice cold death,
And, turning blue, she gave her last breath.

Dolores; her lips once a ruby red,
Now lay pale, cold, and dead.
Up above flies a dove,
As he leaves to see his true love.

The author's comments:
I wrote a poem for spanish and this is basically what it says in english. This poor man died of heart ache and, in case you didn't understand it, is going to reunite with his true love, Dolores, in heaven. Dolores (which actually means pain) died from drowning in a pond because the ice broke. I kind of got the idea from 'Handle With Care' by Jodi picoult. Hope you kinda sorta liked the poem.
