sweetest chill

hearing you in my sleep

feeling you

your cadence seeps

whispering in flashback

the specters of your memories

fall in glistening showers

such a tender descent

intones this haunting lament

the sweetest chill

fearing you but calling your name

icy breath encases my skin

fingers like a fountain of needles

shiver along my spine

and rain down so divine

the sweetest chill

the sweetest chill

a drowning so sublime

spins in a heavenly climb

calling you

tears thaw my sleep

wanting you

this hoary web is weaved

from this strange confusion

grows a perverse communication

it enthralls me and coils me around

the sweetest chill

the sweetest chill

the sweetest chill

enchantment ebbs and whirls

the sweetest chill

enchantment ebbs and whirls

the thrill

the sweetest chill
