A touch of
ice
Tragedies
seem to have a simple way out
The heroine
knows exactly what is about
To occur
She saw the
killer out the window very clearly
Those soft
words he spoke darling I love you dearly
It’s a blur
What seemed
to be so wholesome and nice
Leaves a
shiver running up your spine, a touch of ice
Passionate
kisses dreams of throwing rice
Sharp icicles
form as she speaks her words , a touch of ice
Alibi’s
pulled one after another, like tissue from a box
Loneliness
cares little for sunrise, sunsets, or clocks
Leaves
blowing
Echo’s of
memories still to be written pervade the dreams
Silence ain’t
golden when you wait forever or so it seems
Not knowing
What happened
to don’t kiss me once make it twice?
Northerly
breeze comes whipping up her sleeves, a touch of ice
Angel lost
her wings somehow, now she’s a devil in tights
Freezing me
so, babe let me warm your heart, melt a touch of ice
There’s a
fire in the igloo, I know you want the same thing I do
And the
infernal resistance that’s created by the needless distance
Cools the
fire
So spark a
fire with me babe, ice cold big blue you’ll blow some smoke
And those
tragedies? Like I said the way out is so simple it’s really a joke
We just get
higher
Elevate to
the place where we can snuggle close and spend our nights
Hearts on
fire radiate through your body you don’t have a touch of ice
Melting as
we’re swimming in the sea of love, laughing taking in the sights
Happy in
knowing that the places we’re going are now blessed with a touch of …nice
