She grabbed my hand
and leaned in
she whispered in my ear
"Never get away from me"
I never knew whether this was real
or a dream
but I held it close to my heart
just in case
She meant those things.
The night was freezing cold
just like her very soul
she never smiled
not one time
as I walked her to my home
she agreed to hold my hand,
though.
When we kissed
Her lips were like snow
I was sure that when the Sun
came up
she would glisten like gold.
