Feb 2019
He had hardened gray eyes like the sky in the winter in the middle of a blizzard
So frigid... they matched his ice personality
And I wanted to feel his frost throughout every inch of my being
I got lost in his storm, not wanting to find my way out
I love how it engulfs me at night
When I'm in his element everything is so easy, like breathing
But he makes breathing difficult because he takes my breath away when he smiles in my direction
But even his grin was cold like the heat went out in his body and his breath sent chills down my back and I felt my spine come undone the first time he unzipped my dress.
He kissed snowflakes into my collarbone
Scratched icicles in my thighs
But Winter came...
And left within a few short months
And just like winter, he was my favorite season
When he fell like snow in my arms I ran his hair through my fingertips and tried to transfer my warmth through his follicles
I wanted so badly to be his snow angel
I wanted to bloom like a Crocus on his heart
I wanted to be a part of him
But Winter wanted to be apart from me
So he thawed and evaporated, leaving me with Spring
Spring is so warm and beautiful, but it's so difficult to embrace her vibrant colors and clarity
When I'm most used to the mirages of Winters cold gray eyes.
