Cold collision

The chaos of fighting with my loved one.

I don't understand anymore.
I used to get it.
Get us.
I used to know what was wanted,
how to make smiles and laughter roll between us.
But now there appears a blanket of darkness around us.

We are dancing out of sync,
the melodies in our heads leading us in different directions.
And I stop to think amongst all of this wreckage,
how did we get lost?

I feel like a small child running through the forest,
I have unknowingly strayed from safety to chase down a wisp
only to find that it was a shadow I was following.
And now the shadow is long and the night is advancing upon me
and I simply want to weep for the fear of my life.

For my life is made up of our love.
To be lost from it is to whisper good-bye to all the things that make my heart beat.
I look into your eyes searching for the soft heat of your love for me,
but not a trace of warmth looks back at me.
It is as if you have turned your heart over and allowed a rush of frost to enter your soul.
And I am scared... because I wonder if you see the same in me.
