I waited

until i thought i could wait no more

then you came

and held me like the first day it all changed

back when i thought life would continue to grow darker

my pain stronger

and bad luck to force its wrath upon me forever


I took you again in my arms

my breath trailing down your neck

your head on my shoulder

because before you were my savior

the gold shining in the blackness

But now i'm clawing at these empty sheets

cold

numb

incomplete

with ice over the fire

of our raging collision.


-still as ice
