when winter arrives
with fingers of ice
that creep across
the window pane
i recall him in
my solitude
is he warm now
in another's embrace?
too easy do I recollect
every facet of his face
the jaw i traced
with trembling hands
eyes of emerald
flecked with gold
arms encircled
'round my waist
mouth that plundered
kisses bold
fingers fine
that intertwined
my own hands
and passion wild
velvet tongue
his saving grace
poet's words enamoured hearts
noble brow for kisses chaste
soul that claimed mine
as its own
smile like sunburst
warmed his face
laugh that charmed
a bashful child
mind all beauty
to behold
but winter dwells within his heart
there alone, it's ever cold
