winter romance is make it or break

​winter romance is make it or break it
 
 
You two meld there,
lit by yellow incandescent
and snow spots of white
smooching outside
 
as the steam of you
billows up
into the static
dry freezing night
 
its blossom breathes a
nebulous promise
between
your conjoined heads,
 
it forms a thought bubble,
a speech cloud
stating, even now
even frozen
I --
 
we are here.

Go big or go home
or sometimes, just stop
 
going and close
your eyes and
 
raise up your
arms and open
 
your mouth and
stop.
 
Let the air fill you
and chill the insides
 
of your cheeks.
Let the thrumming
 
of countless interactions
warming and flashing
 
and pulsing and beating
within the solidity of you
 
become an
orchestra
 
of spaces, of winter.
Stop.
