Timeless Love
by Ela Lourenco
.
My breath freezes as I exhale
In this ice house that I call home
There are logs aplenty and a fireplace
But I will not light it
The time is not yet come.
I hum gently as I rock in my chair
My tune is a lullaby in the frozen night air.
My beloved sits beside me
Without sound nor move
His touch is ice cold
But that will change soon.
The time we have left is short
Soon he will thaw and decay
But his body will ever be mine
He can no longer get away…

A terrific poem.
That’s so creepy – and now I’ll have that picture of him slowly defrosting like a Chriatmas turkey for the rest of the holiday 🙂
