cold glass and the air.

by Andrew S Adams

because when my lips touch
your lips i dont expect to breathe frozen air,
but that's how it is-
so i suck it up and inhale anyways.
and just because your eyes are made of
lead crystal doesnt make them any more
fragile than any entity you might find
anywhere else in the mind.

and just because your tears are icewater
doesnt mean that i'm thirsty and exhausted.
