Grey cloudy skies covering the moonlight
Bitter chills blowing into the night
A warm exhale as we look into each other's eyes
Relentless pleading,
"Please, open up"
A sharp intake of the bitter cold
Flushing red cheeks full of warmth
I tenderly lay my frozen palm
A second of contact before you turn.
Leaving me with my outstretched arm
My source of warmth sizzles away
Leaving me frozen,
As if nothing had changed.
