Author's Note: I do know that I have a collection for poems, but I didn't feel that this fitted in a collection. I created it a week ago, taking a break from my current project. I had just reread the series, and I wanted to show a character's progression through the series. I chose Winter, because in my eyes, he is the most tragic character. I didn't realize Faded Portraits existed, or that it covers the same topic as mine, but you should definitely read it if you like Winter. Sandshadow did a great job.
With that, out of the way, enjoy.

I am Prince Winter of the Icewings.
Hatched into royalty of the Icewing tribe,
The brother of Prince Hailstorm and Princess Icicle.

I am Prince Winter of the Icewings.
Loyal to the great tribe of the Icewings,|
The son of Narwhal and Tundra.

I am Prince Winter of the Icewings.
Forced away from the Icewings,
Dragged into a weak, disorganized school.

I am Prince Winter of the Icewings.
Stuck with an arrogant Sandwing and a stupid Rainwing.
And Moon.

I am Prince Winter of the Icewings.
My sister was almost murdered in school,
And my brother is dead.

I am Prince Winter of the Icewings.
Be strong, be vigilant, strike first. Trust nobody.
I trusted her, the mindreader.

And now I pay the price.

I am Prince Winter of the Icewings.
My brother is alive, and my sister's a murderer.
And now we're stuck in the Rainforest.

I am Prince Winter the Icewing.
Betrayed my own sister and my tribe,
By taking a liking to her.

I am Prince Winter the Icewing.
Travelling with a Sandwing and a Rainwing.
And Moon.

I am Prince Winter the Icewing.
Searching for the terror of the tribes,
Travelling with a Skywing of power.

I am Prince Winter the Icewing.
Fought against the dragon that would hurt Moon,
And my brother was beside me the whole time.

I am Prince Winter the Icewing.
I am stuck in the chaos of Possibility,
With a broken Rainwing, my brother, Qibli, and Moon.

I am Winter the Icewing.
I am not in love with the dragon I swore to hate.
I do not love Moon.

I am Winter the Icewing.
First place in the glorious rankings,
With my brother in last.

I am Winter the Icewing.
Forced into the diamond trial,
With my brother against me.

I am Winter the Icewing.
Sworn to hate the Nightwings,
Taking the power that was ours.

I am Winter the Icewing.
Sworn to hate the Nightwings,
Yet I find myself saving the Slayer of Foes.

I am Winter the Icewing.
Fighting the monster of Peril,
Only to be in peril myself.

I am Winter the Icewing.
The scroll is for the power of the Queens.
The scroll is for the Icewings.

I am Winter the Icewing.
Something is coming to shake the ground,
The dragon of Nightmares rising from the Earth.

I am Winter the Icewing.
The Nightmares were just a dream,
Darkstalker is nicer than he seems.

Mistakes. All mistakes.

I am Winter.
I accompanied Qibli,
Into the den of Scorpions.

I am Winter.
Trapped with his family,
Seeking a friend of his.

I am Winter.
We escaped the fortress,
Only to be in front of another.

I am Winter.
I hurt him...
My friend...

I am Winter.
I was enchanted,
And I didn't listen.

I am Winter,
Lurking in the Kingdom of Night,
Searching for the one I love...

Who likes who I hate.

I am Winter.
I fought with my tribe,
Even though that's what she hates.

I am Winter.
Taken by the spell,
Forced back to my land.

No. Not my land. Their land.

I'm Winter.
The prophecy was a lie,
But it was for the better.

I'm Winter.
Nothing is the same.
The future is new.

I'm Winter.
I was too late for her.
He was better than her.

I'm Winter.
I failed her.
I failed myself.

I'm Winter.
I'm Winter.

I am not Prince Winter of the Icewings.
I'm Winter.

There's a difference.

I tried so hard to be someone I wasn't.
It only caused me more pain,
Because I never embraced who I was.

I'm Winter.
Winter the Icewing.

But I was never truly an Icewing.

I'm Winter.
I'm in love with Moon.

But I was never truly loved by her.

I'm Winter.
Prince Winter.

But I was never a dragon of legends.

I lied to my friends,
I lied to my family,
I lied to those I love,
But most importantly,
I lied to myself.
