Frostbite

Expand with a click.

  

In the purity of zero i go back i always go back

when the air cracks crystal to the force of you

when i stood in the open and the wind burned my skin

the waning crescent just clearing the woods

the day begins with what i wanted to find

and there you were fiery and gorgeous

shattering orbs and the rest mad for words

fierce with desire an explosion of mind

in the drifts that cover the frozen creek

writing it failing both of us caught

in a fusillade we couldn't see coming

of breaking limbs and an ice cannonade.
