You grabbed my scarf in the silent shadows
Of that wintery night.
To bring me closer to your open soul
To bring me warmth with your soft breath

And all at once, piercing winds
And tingling fingers
Were unknown to us
Just as the rest of the world-
Vanished.
So too my longing-
Vanished.

And I found a warmth only
Once imagined, in the depths of my
Dreams.

And now I no longer fear the blustered wind
At my back
For you are there
And it is but not a dream.
