Feel buzz of voices
corners in shadows
joined together
in bitter memories of
frozen moments.
In an iceberg perennial
a strange cold penetrated
as new born thorn infinite
while in my void abyss
first time frosted roses
await into oblivion.

i really like the line "as new born thorn infinite"... my void abyss is redundant and i think there is a bit to much melodrama here for me... i would tone down the overly "poetic" elements and find something closer to your natural voice, there are so many nice images here and they could be put to better use i think
thanks so much for the entry

an icy poem for sure, it sinks to a depth of emotion in an ocean blue where only the tip of an iceberg has freedom to smile for the sun
