when winter ends, so will I.
my heart will melt
and my body will become warm.
My eyes will glow with the soft spring sun -
and everything I see will illuminate in front of them.
I'll see things just as they are, and just as they should be.
There won't be any need of desire or loneliness, happiness or sadness.
Everything will be ok -
Everything will be alright.

my heightened sense of awareness over looks the calm space between us, only letting what we want to pass through it -
maybe it's a touch, a look, or a word
from me to you,
it's just how it should be,

but your saddened face takes me by surprise when I leave,
only to return again to make sure something's there when you're by yourself, because nothing but stillness should make you feel like that.
there should always be a space between us.

so I tell you this, when we're together - it's just as it should be

I sat around the fire while they told ghost stories
how silly,
but I was scared.

I floated around the fire while they told human stories
how silly,
they can't possibly be real.

I live my life like a one way mirror
with her on the other side.
she can't tell I'm there,
but I catch every little movement

steal,
take what doesn't belong to you
but remember who you stole it for
