December's Reign:

Do you remember,
When the blank whiteness glowed with glee,
Do you remember,
When the sheet of ice broke your fall for me?

Do you know the time,
When the ice chilled air burrowed into your skin,
Do you know the time,
When you held me close within?

Do you remember,
When our love was an island,
Unbreakable, beyond anyone’s touch,
And unwavering, our love so grand,

Do you remember,
That one December so cold,
You buried yourself in my arms,
And your barriers began to fold?

As the winter night raged on,
And my thoughts turn unto the warring trees,
Love that was once lost,
Is a love anew beyond the deep freeze,

My love will come,
Unwavering, and just,
There’s not much more they can be,
But free of death is a must.
