cold nights

You are an elegance
of uncaptureable beauty
I love your words
and miss your sounds
still

The night cold did not matter
the warmth was in our being
darkness had no hold
as our eyes were the light

only the foolish
filled the spaces
that we did
only the foolish
hold those times
warm in their
hearts and hands
we are beautiful
fools
better still from
the wisdom of our depths
and from the pain of
our impossibilities
i love it

you will never cease
to ignite my senses
or to light my memories

neither will you ever lose
my heart
my fondness
my gratitude
or my whimsey

cold nights
that
warm forever
