Cold

It's cold
Like when your face turns blue
Because you stayed outside too long
Like when you freeze water in
Your fridge except for when it's broken
Like when your heart stopped
Except it didn't which makes you sad
Like when you wanted to die
But you were far too scared for that
Like when you said I love you
But you stopped meaning is so long ago
It's cold
Like a beautiful winter's day
And the snow falls so gently down
Like a cold glass of soda pop
That refreshes your addiction every sip
Like ice on a sore, aching muscle
That you worked just a bit too hard
Like a cold rag on your face
When you're alight with feverish skin
Like the smooth cold edge of a knife...
