I am not a monster, no matter what they say about me

I am only a person who is different from the rest of the world

An oddity amongst normal men with normal lives

They do not suffer like I do, for normal men cannot suffer

From a curse created by torturous Fates

For years I have lived in solitude, alone, silently weeping

Mourning over what I have lost and what has been taken away from me

My freedom, my rights, and most importantly

You, dear sister, who gave me hope and joy when none was to be found

Little one, please forgive me for the grievous wrongs I've done to you

The errors, sins, and treasons committed by these hands

These icy hands that bring only destruction and misery to everything they touch

I am sorry that I scarred you, that I shut you out and left you alone

Denied you of love

But after all those years, the control I had learned was not enough

And once more I destroyed everything I had

Only then did I have an epiphany, a brilliant idea

Let it go

So now I sit upon this frozen throne fit only for a cold-hearted queen

Ruling a kingdom of isolation fashioned from snow and ice

If any dare to mock or harm me, they will face the might of a whirling storm

For I am powerful as a roaring avalanche, and as the poets of old once wrote:

"I will show you fear in a handful of dust."
