chapped lips and stormy playgrounds

by Timothy Wilson

The wind blows a glimpse of your heart
my way and every
The lingering shock of soft-on-dry
Followed by a rough interruption of awe
And I think I like this
Please stay in my arms
Through cold
Through sickness
and in hell

The cold brings those thoughts back
of brown hair entangled with thoughts
Anxiety
And the fire in your eyes

There had to be some fire in your eyes when you wrote this thing. Very, very well done.

Very nice imagery here. I love the last half of the first stanza.
