Burrrrrr
This cold weather has got me thinking that
I don’t see you as much as I used to
Which is a shame because I’ve got
Hugs that resemble wool coats and the kiss
Of a fireplace across your face
I’m warm
People often say I don’t show much compassion
Towards the opposite *** and
That’s because I’m saving it all for you
Like a child learning the value of a dollar
Constantly saving up to better my future
Until I meet you
I’ll spend it all on lollipops, teddy bears and
Others things of that nature to make you stay around longer
Striking a match inside my organs that winter when
My tongue froze to a light post and you were the only one who didn’t laugh at me
It seemed logical at the time
It felt like you gave me this fire
And I could conquer abnormal tasks simply by having the idea of you
Linger at the end of everything I touch
This is called “feeling” you told me
Snow drops like days
I was born with a ribcage that resembles wooden logs
With the fire you put in my belly………..
I’m starting to get concerned so,
I need to see you soon
Before my ribcage is ablaze
Before my body is 20% smoke 80% fire and 100% your first name
Girl, I’m about ready to spontaneously combust
So make these miles feel like seconds
I need to show you how close spring is
And what summer
Feels like
burrrr
