Winter.

In a rush it finally arrived
A winter of your love
A december of you
Such a fresh breath
to breathe in that crisp air
a sting in my lungs
a frost in my mind
You became frozen
a piece of me thats gone
The you that goes forgotten

I find love in this winter,
the beauty this snow has brought
How I love it so!
I left you behind,
frozen in the recesses of my mind
not soon to be thawed out
by the light of May
or the warmth of June
You're the frozen ground
I tread under my feet
You will not shake me.
