UNDER THE SNOW
Deep, deep, deep,
Quickly, so none should know,
I buried my warm love stealthily Under the winter snow.
For you had coldly said, Coldly and carelessly, "Bury you love or let it live, It is all the same to me."
I tore it out of my heart!
I crushed it within my hand!
It cried to you in its agony For help, but you came not; and
It struggled within my grasp;
It fought with my woman's will; kneeled to my woman's pride with tears Then silent it lay, and still.
I knew that it was not dead,
But I said:	" soon will die,
Buried under the winter snow,
Under the winter sky."
I kissed it tenderly,
Just once, for the long ago; shrouded it with your cold, cold word Colder than all the snow!
Deep, deep, deep,
Quickly, so none should know,
I buried my warm love stealthily Under the winter snow.
Then with my murderous hands I raised up the heavy stone Of SILENCE over my buried love, I-est the world should hear it moan.
