Next Fall
By With love_Crow
This breath of mine
Meets yours, yet frosts over
With the cold
of your words
Turning lips blue
From the overexposure
And
yet glacial fingers
Caress the hollow of cheeks
Pulling me ever
so closer
And it's too much to hold
Back, Too much to gather
What this touch means to you
Behold how I shatter
Beneath it,
The black
Of deceit fits tightly
On your figure, a seed
Meant
to grow in
A soil most bitter
And flowers do die
In winter,
like a plague
The snow comes
Thinking they will defy
Their
nature and adapt
Just like you do
With my lips dry and chapped
I could never evolve into
Something new
To my form I am trapped
But I will meet with you
Soon, time will pass
Ghosts of greed,
extracting
Life from my bones and I'll be
Wed to the weed that
takes us
All, death I'll marry you
Next fall...

A seasonal piece par excellence, but be careful of that weed - it makes you stoopid. Much enjoyed and sorry I missed this gem earlier, cheers!
