Like a cold north wind
you blew into my heart
this morning.
Deliberately covering
our love
in a blanket of snow.
A blanket so deep
to chill a heart
and smother feelings.
I feel the cold,
my heart shivers
uncontrolleably.
The hurting words
I can't escape,
like wading thru drifts.
The cut in my heart
is deep.
Are you bleeding?
The footprint
there upon
matches yours.
I see you there,
I wait silently
for the next words.
I can't help but think
of all we've shared
but then I stop.
The thinking is
killing me,
tearing at my heart.
A mind
on auto pilot
allows a heart to mend.
And so the memories
will have to wait
for the healing.
I've had my mind on "auto pilot" many many times and this piece of yours speaks volumes. I feel like we must have met somewhere before. LOL Wonderful phrasing and description.
Warmest Regards,
Jessica
