Winter

Three winters ago he was shy,

His heart shyly beating, so close to mine.

Two winters ago, we started dating,

My heart soaring, our love delighting.

But last winter he turned into a monster,

His heart hardened, his love fizzling out.

He became something he hated the most,

His father, his spirit now so dark and cold.

Before he was sweet like a doe,

His love swamping me, bringing me joy.

Now he is a wolf, going to eat me,

My heart breaking, my spirit so low.
