And also that one will dry

By Any

Without promises
I wanted to stay with you, snowman
But you saw the light
Living in a world without me.

For you that was the end of the story
Your blood as cold as the water of the Arctic
I wanna hurt you just to hear you screaming my name -
But snowmen don't scream.

Every day it's getting harder
I wanna touch you -
But then my heart would freeze
Snowmen don't exude any warmth.

Our time is running out
Shall I give up the thought of love?
Why did I want what I wanted from you, baby?
Why did you freeze my heart?

Trying to get over it is making me crazy
The more I am put into light -
The smaller you become.
Are you crying, snowman?

Your cheeks - so wet
Don't be afraid, snowman -
Soon we will meet again
Don't lose your faith - I forgive you...

But one day you were gone
And there was only more a puddle
On my pillow -

And also that one will dry.

    Must have been one hell of an enchanting "snowman". The storms of love will weather again and there will be another snowman for you. Good write.

    That was a nice and tastefully done extended metaphor. Quite an enjoyable poem thank you. =]

    I like the use of "snowman" in here, it allowed for me as the reader to put things together. I can feel the pain of wanting, wishing. I enjoyed this.
