overwinter
you’re going to be with me
for the rest of the winter
i’ll watch the snowflakes melt in your hair.
the wind has hardened your skin
and now it softens against mine.
we thaw
our crystallized notions
congealing into a warm embrace.
if we retain our attraction,
our heat,
the cold won’t get us.
and this moment, this season
can remain in overwinter,
forever.
yet soon
our emotions will brew
into a perilous blizzard.
blinded by this universes quake,
and with our thoughts
whited out,
we cannot see.
we'll cling together,
shivering, frozen
cold,
a lover's tableau
shaken,
inside a static snow-globe
