Warmly Frozen

Perspiring cold in a humid morning

Like fire in the midst of rain.

Heat around yet perpetually freezing

Was it just subsisting pain?

In my mind I feel warmth again

But my forehead’s cold to touch.

Recovering as fast as I can

Like wounds to patch as much.

The feel of bliss now but a trauma,

Distorted shackles of darkness past.

A poison once thought like aroma

Shattered mirrors reveal it at last.
