remember when the snow
nipped our fingers
and you grabbed mine and put them in your pocket?
and i laughed because
you looked at me silly
and my stomach was flittering
the fire pit burned
and our words spilled over drinks
and that’s the first time
i heard your voice crack
and saw that tear in your eye
and i knew i didn’t want to leave
remember when we dipped our heads back
to blow foggy breathes into the sky
and stared at the moon?
you grew strangely silent so
i turned to you
and you were giving me a tender look
and it made me suddenly shy
it was cold and it was warming me
in all kinds of ways
and my breathe caught because i knew
i couldn’t say goodbye
remember when we walked the frozen lake
as the stars glittered above
and we played music and sang
and danced our hearts away?
you grabbed my arm and we turned around
and around
and around
and i laughed and knew my life would never be the same
