Frigid Night

Cold and blue and Lifeless-Bayside

 

Skin frozen, pull apart from yours.

Numbing digits-

And a rosy tinted nose.

Sniffles and blinks, your eyes,

A pinkish hue.

Chattering teeth- and lips at

Kissing distance.

Hearts’ a pounding, pumping

Reddish juice.

Opals a fingertip away,

Mine and your kaleidoscope lenses.

Were dancing at each other,

While frozen in time-

And body temperature. 

You burn me with your stare-

And melt away my pride.

You now reveal a man,

With nothing more to gain-

And nothing less to hide.
