i see you there
branches twisted in a cage
(the most organic prison)
snow on the ground
a red tattered blanket on
and you’re shivering
(in the centre)
the silence of the forest surrounds you
(whispers of birch and pine)
you feel so alone
tears freezing to your face
you’re already numb
…
look up
feel my hand
the warmth as i pull you in closer
(and keep you there)
i will protect you
(until you stop shaking)
hold you close
as winter passes to spring
and i’ll be back in autumn..
