Cold Love
March 6, 2015
Your love is a cold one
A love that binds and freezes my heart wide open
So I never miss the first petals of winter
Fall away to the storms of summer
And I cannot live without its touch
Be careful where your snow falls
And how the light strikes the millions of facets of your smile
Because it is blinding
You hold frozen lavender petals
And spread them on dark water
Beside ice and snow

I was going for an e. e. cummings feel to this one, and it was snowing outside at the moment, so I considered what it would be like to write about love as a cold thing in a good way. This is what came out.
