spring awakened
and I woke up with it
was frozen in the winter of you
stuck in memories
suspended in hope and longing
I was coated every inch
with your frost
but it's warming up
melting you off me
icicles form
growing long
dragging it out
not ready to let you go yet
sometimes you do something
to freeze me up again
under your hold
going back and forth
hot and cold
but the ice becomes long
unwieldy
and soon
one by one
break off
and fall
as time passes
I become free of you more and more
growing warm
until your winter had never been at all
