Raven Snow
Lady in black, guards her heart so closely,
People whisper she has none.
Ghost of slender build, eyes cold, a stare to stop time.
Terror is her everpresent shadow ā they call her evil.
Define evil, she says.
Is it when I exact consequences on bullies?
Should I bow to traditional values,
giggle at pink unicorns, deny my nature?
Is it evil to be different? To scorn artificial niceties?
To use my power to fight what I believe is wrong?
I stand unafraid against those in charge. I speak my truth.
Lady in white, wears her heart on her sleeve,
Guarding her icy touch with loving care.
Smiling, calm, refined, a queen at every moment.
Fear festered, spreading frozen curses ā they called her monster.
I'm not a monster, she says.
I retreat from harming others, I seek to live in peace.
I protect those dear to me ā even from myself.
Should I wear iron gloves, deny my nature?
Is it monstrous to be different? To wield ice and snow?
To lose control under pressure, to learn how to love?
Are we not all human, bearing multifaceted powers and gifts?
22 lines, 188 words, free verse.
Written for "Invalid Item" 
Inspired by Wednesday Addams and Elsa from Frozen.
