these waters are as frigid as the frozen tundra
my finger tips have gone numb and had begun to turn purple
shivering underneath the arctic ice,
I could not speak, I could not breathe,
out of control with time quickly running out
I had to make a choice
fall in love with you
or die out here in these polar conditions
for you see, I could not decide which would be more scary
but there you were only a few feet away reaching for me
no matter how many times I had thrown myself in harms way, you were always there to help me pick up the pieces and put the puzzle back together
if I take your hand, I give you the opportunity to **** me way worse than these frozen waters could
I could float right here in this very spot,
until my heart stopped
knocked unconscious and dream of you, paint a beautiful picture of us inside my eyelids
or I could take your hand and live in reality
I couldn't feel you until I was out of the water, and wrapped in a hug,
in your arms I felt your warmth surround me as if our auras had blended together to create a double rainbow of chakras perfectly aligned
in your embrace I was confident I had made the right choice
nestled closely underneath your chin, I managed to crack and smile with my blue-gray lips
I would be fine, as long as I had you
don't wade in the frozen waters, go on and take their hand
