It’s been cold,

January snow

Ironic that for our favourite weather,

We are alone

 

I think of your cheeks,

Hot pink, burned from frost

Like settled ladybugs,

Lovewords that I have lost

 

You’re good at keeping warm,

And all I know is surviving through Winter

But you’re not safe where you are now,

And I’ll be dead before Easter

…

It’s still so cold,

February snow

Time not spent together,

Away from home

 

I think of your smile

Do you remember a time?

Anything at all?

Lovebirds that cannot chime

 

May your face wrinkle,

From the laughter someone gives you

May your hands find,

Someone to pull closer at night

 

May your hugs comfort,

As from Pooh

May your lifeline seek,

A succesful rhyme

…

I am so cold,

February snow

This snowdrop cliff

Never let me go
