Winter's Embrace

Missing image
Monochromatic transformations have arisen
from lover’s deadly eyes
calloused enough to burn any figuration
created by some illusionist’s thought.

Fragments of cold manipulation
produced by nature’s hands
sun-kissed these pink cheeks
and sedated all internal anger waged.

I watched the so many rivers that streaked frozen,
still, in your remarkable core.
I was overjoyed with your arrival this year,
but relentlessly not overjoyed enough.

Warm embraces were converted to sharp cuts
Winds blew stronger cutting path through my pain.
I love how it beholds so many reasons, so many illusions;
Simile stories are shared in brief silences.

We marched, hand in hand, comparing sad tragedies
With unwritten dramas and uncensored fairy tales.
Words waltz in our eyes, and I rejoiced, truly rejoiced;
To have found warmth in a cold winter night.

I tried my best to express the comfort and the agony of winter... I love winter when it comes to seasons but the cold, it kills me ...
I hope you liked it... I was out of muse and well I tried my best !

    I think you did a good job expressing what winter means to you. I drove through a snowstorm on the way home tonight. I like most things about winter, including the cold.

    Great job.
