==the Cold That Took You Away== Poem by Elizabeth Tyease Collins
==the Cold That Took You Away==
The heavens parted and the waters have calmed,
to bring you to me in the beginning of this
invisable storm,
but you let through and i held out my hand
and was able to get away to the tropical land.
First it rained and rained but i knew we could
survive,
all we needed was shelter or just somewhere
to hide.
If not then my love will keep us dry,
no matter what will happen I'll always be
by your side.
Then cold weather came our way,
and the snow came down hard,
and i felt obligated to keep you warm so safe in my
arms,
but the cold cut through love and ice,
and left me there holding onto nothing
but a lost life.
I told you before the cold hell came,
that I would protect you at all cost
no matter how bad it would be,
but i stood in the shadows holding onto my
sorrow,
when i saw that your body lost it's warm glint
and became so hollow.
I resisted to touch it as you layed there
cold to the touch,
but my love is attached to you and i can't
let you go off,
I promised you a life of no worries,
no arguments, no time,
intimacy among the highest levels,
just you and me....
The snow took you away from me,
the night that lost more than one life,
so as much as i hated to see your body
so cold,
i promised myself to not let you go alone.

It is difficult to place the location of the poetic event. I got a little lost in the tropical island and the severe cold. Interesting poem though. Jim
