"Ice Cold"

I see you there

While your swarms of light surround you

A typhoon could hit,

And you'd still stand just as still

Your expression unfaltering through it all

>

It is spring now

Your name smells like flowers

But the rose

Of your cheeks is gone

Winter frost clings to your hardened face

>

Your eyes were rich

Like sunset on planting soil

Warm earth to sleep on

Now I sleep in the trees

I always get frostbite from the cold ground

>

A touch of your skin

Would make my heart melt

Last time we met

Gliding your arm underneath my robes,

I shivered

You were ice cold
