Ice, crystallizing
makes hard to breathe
Morning’s first breath

pressure in chest
pushing deeper
the cold

{ so cold }

as it makes permanent
residence, here
forever now,

in this heart
of winter.


knocked out of the ring by love
do you lose and win
or win and lose
I asked the river for a sign
how long, is love supposed to shine....

dont you sometimes,
wish your heart
was made of stone-  Cher

Donna~

you shine dear lady.... I do not see you as a heart of winter or frozen....

Life is a balance
of holding on and letting go (KU)

yes yes
gentle Donna
sometimes a heart made of stone
would hurt less
than that godawful
cold

this is perfect!

hugs
