#coldshoulder
Somewhere in the distance
Somewhere out in the cold
Somewhere far far away
Somewhere on your way
Somewhere it was icky
Somewhere it was sticky
Somewhere in the situation
Somewhere but "I'm sorry"
Somewhere "maybe next time"
Somewhere just "not right now"
Somewhere I'll tell you later
Somewhere beyond hello
Somewhere past goodbye
Somewhere in your presence
Somewhere in your absence
Somewhere in the noise
Somewhere in the silence
Somewhere in the darkness
Somewhere in the void
I fell out of love with you.

Your back is turned to me
And I am freezing cold
But I won't cover up,
Hoping your warm arms will reach out to me again

These warm sheets cradle me
with memories of last night.
I can sense you --
your baren body in the same sheets as mine.
These 12 inches between us feel like miles --
back to back.
Couldn't you just hold me for a little?
This ice on my shoulder is starting to burn
The crystals grow to form a protective coat
That resemble the stalagmites in my cavernous heart.
Eyes glazed over, the warm sheets rustle
and your sweet breath grazes my neck.
Your soft lips on my jaw line
and a wondering hand on my thigh,
Yet I remain as frigid as the ice on my skin.
When you're quite finished,
you'll leave me with agitated sighs.
I'll remain and slowly waste away in warm sheets,
crystallized skin protecting the embers of the girl within.
