Don't be afraid
To shudder every once in a while
To stop frozen in your mind
To feel the ice creep into your heart
And take control
There's a certain beauty in that
In being cold hearted
But there's also a certain tragedy too
Because when someone finally
Helps you warm your cold heart
And they see it thaw
They know
That if you're in the wrong hands again
All of the work put into warming you
Won't matter
So don't be afraid to let the cold in
Feel it seep into your chest
It feels like an icy finger down your back
And puffs cool breaths on your soul
Don't be afraid
To be cold
