Swimming in winter
Taste the water, cold with ice
Watch my fingers turn blue
Blow my farewell kiss to the fear of frost-bite
Touching the leaves as they die
Leaving behind whats already just
My eyesight reflecting the snow from the sun
And I can try to run...
Try to shake these icicles out of my curls
Try to break the cubes beneath my feet
And kill the minty air
I leave the water
Step by step
Needles pierce through clothing wet...
Look behind me
Choke the breeze
Close my eyes
Is it over just yet?
