Snowstorms
A pirate's worst fear
A soldier's worst fate
A bird's worst season
She's a storm.
Revving beneath the surface
Waiting to explode
Into millions of shards
Piercing
No one left unscathed,
Those are the times
She smiles brightest
Covered in a scent
Metallic and horrid
Yet
in her eyes
That's home
Life feels most valuable
When death is close to her—
Everyone questions
Her mechanics
Yet
I'm sure
She is a storm
Most alive
When she's wild
Untamed—
My home,
A stable place
One always constant
One immovable—
In its madness
Content,
I'll sink
Within that snowtorm
Because I know—
You'll take me in your arms,
Unflinching,
When my scars
Begin to leak

This is a poem inspired by a relationship between two characters I have– nothing personal. Just thought it'd be fun to define where they stand
