Carving a place in me,
You settle in uneasy and prickly
Filling out my pretty flaws
And ghastly hollows
Filling me with your steady love
And now all i do is
Pine for the cozy alcove
Of your cavernous heart

I could cut you off,
Like i would,
a treacherous thorn from a rose
But i let it bleed me dry
The feeling of melancholy
Spreads through my body in waves
A romantic melody plays,
For a lonely love that stays
Through thick and thin

Your sweet words
ring faintly in my ears
Snow falls quietly outside
Like the tears from my eyes
The truth is biting cold
Yet i embrace it
And every time I stray far, shivering
Your phantom touch thaws me
yet again
And once again,
I wish you didn't
