i wrap you around me like a blanket against the storm
they always said bare body heat worked fastest
and the vibration of your voice only speeds up the process
the touch of your caressing hand turns up the temperature
and I think to myself, gosh,
you are my home

Silent
Sweet Sublime Silent

Field of the Fallen
Sunlight danced softly across the frost-crusted fields, making the little blades of grass sparkle like emeralds. The faraway chirrup of a songbird was the only disruption to the quiet of the morning. An icy chill, the last vestige of the dying winter, clung to the air, settling in a thick white mist at the far side of the open field. The heavy stench of decay hung in that mist, punctuation by the sharp tang of freshly spilled blood.
