Dec 2019
Icicles piercing my skin
Pinpricks covering every inch
Jack Frost tickling my side
Patterns of Lapis twirling around my head
Transparent pearls jumping and popping at my fingertips
My vision a vignette of the dark and fading night sky
My lungs a sharp-edged model of themselves
My limbs softening into the empty relaxation of absence
The tip of the cliff just outside my grasp
Every sense fighting back
Holding on just a little longer
The head pounding so loud it's quiet
Then I'm overtaken
And everything is clear
