The damp air is raw Short white puffs of mist Aching from effort, another gulp of frozen air is forced Only a heart insist It lingers cold and metallic in her mouth fear wounded by obvious infatuation A lasting wonder to bear whether she’s wanted, or been settled for. building a house of cards one wrong move, and they’ll never reach the top. The words left unspoken, watching them like guards Slowly tearing all apart Protests of an undying love The mist is crawling slowly wrapping itself around them like a glove odious, self crushing means her breathing grows louder and slower A desired effect

The world changes me
The damp air is raw Short white puffs of mist Aching from effort, another gulp of frozen air is forced Only a heart insist It lingers cold and metallic in her mouth fear wounded by obvious infatuation A lasting wonder to bear whether she’s wanted, or been settled for. building a house of cards one wrong move, and they’ll never reach the top. The words left unspoken, watching them like guards Slowly tearing all apart Protests of an undying love The mist is crawling slowly wrapping itself around them like a glove odious, self crushing means her breathing grows louder and slower A desired effect
