Let's Chill
In this ??cold weather?,
Don't give me the ??cold shoulder?
because you have ?#cold feet? about us.
We were skating on thin ??ice? with our first date.
But how else could we have tested the? waters??
I mean, that's why people break the ice in the first place.....

Fun

Skating on thin ice describes for some
that nice Deception--fun,
taunting the chill fathom
beneath the white skin.

Too much like spending
small change for me.
All that over-shoulder peeking
to be sure the depth's not there.

When one hard look would send
those enamel eyes 
crashing through 
a surprise of air....

COMPLEMENT*
 
 
You told me once
That my eyes are the most beautiful you 
Have ever seen
 
I replied:

If true, my love, 
Is only because into them your stunning beauty
Is reflected!

*I am aware that writing this poem I am skating on thin ice,
BUT , wanting to pay back the complement a lady made, I came up 
With this answer for I do not think she is right!...

Trying: Wait and See
skating on thin ice 
in my bare feet 
i am tightrope walking in
my big chunky boots
i sympathize with fire
numb to the burn
then swallow it whole
to quench the yearn
to satisfy this craving
i pretend i have wings
becoming accustomed to 
these busted up knees
don't mind me, i'm just
tracing circles through the air
you think i'm getting nowhere
but you just wait
you wait and see

i'm more 
than you 
will ever be...

Premium Member Wake up and hear the silence
How long do you think
you can ride the coattails
of blissful ignorance?

Isn't it flagrantly obvious that
you are skating on thin ice...
and equally evident that
you're living on borrowed time?

How long do you think
you can get away with avoiding
the elephant in the room?

Have I been the unjaded enabler
whilst my silence should have screamed
to you louder than any multitude of decibels?
