Skadi

If I really need to,
I don't mind defying all the gods.
This winter will be a bloody one,
If I need to call on the Jotuns.

The ice will crack and your drowning will come quick,
As I hover over you in the arms of Skadi.
Don't think that because one god is on your side,
That you'll be able to save me.

My longboat will break through to pull you out,
After your breath has left your frozen lungs.
The snow and ice will have melted long before,
The coldness in my heart, from the sun.

And it's alright,
Maybe the gods will bring us together yet.
Even they are known to change their hearts.
But on Skadi's forgiveness I would not bet.
