It Lingers
An icy tingle bites the tips of my shaking fingers
As I reach for you.
A cold glove surrounds my heart, and it lingers,
Brittles the delicate fresia of my figure.
You walk on a carpet of fallen scales;
You created my wake.
You chose to face the sun.
In a breeze, you feel a
Shudder escape my lips,
A cold glove surrounds my heart, and it lingers.
Warming the thick sheath of ice
Surrounding you, but only barely.
I never wanted it to reach you.
An icy tingle bites the tips of my shaking fingers.
Midnight winds whispered to you
In lines of despair,
And a line drawn across your face by
One single, burning tear.
