The Faces of Exposure

Imagine feeling all the heat of ice Resembling the white of your fingertips Gusts of polar destruction nipping away from the outside going in Imagine impelling to the state of numb from the frosty exposure A lost mind in an unfeeling body Raw to the touch Imagine the fire reigniting the flame from your core Color flushing into your skin Sensation gradually taking hold Imagine growing calescent Roasting in the oven of yourself Scalding to the melting point Imagine straddling your thoughts Attempting to validate any and all sensation Uncertain of it being mental or physical Imagine being exposed Both physically and mentally strained Feeling vulnerable from experiencing the faces of "exposure"
