Summer Has Never Been So Cold
our passion was like blazing embers ignited by love's kindle-
now I sit by the ivory sill encompassed in burnt ashes.
summer has never been so cold....
since my love began to unfold.
our sunset used to be medallion and tangerine-
western skies setting in an aria of a utopian romance.
now I lay on an empty bed, encompassed in bloodstained ebon tears.
summer has never been so cold…
without your body to have and to hold.
our enchanting fairy-tale used to be full of big orange pumpkins and
blue glass slippers-
now I stand by the tower window wishing I could be Cinderella once again.
summer has never been so cold…
with you removing your ring of gold.
