sleet kissed my sheet,
as my body lay frozen in frost;
the moon danced before my eyes,
leaving little divas in disguise
upon my cold, concrete flesh.
Nature was cloaking me,
feeding me her knowledge
as full moon's freedom granted,
permission to peel my skin like snakes
to save myself double despair.
Beneath me, is formula water,
preparing to evaporate into my hand.

hmmm...mysterious and almost spiritual in it's tone. You have a way with words. I appreciated the alliteration and rhythm of this piece.
this part was very original...

lying in the snow on a still night with a full moon above you...
