Chilled words sting a flushed tint
Playing with some jacket lint
He said he'd give anything for me to know
But my eyes, glazed with snow.
Winter freeze did much to harden the heart
Or shatter his with a dart
He promised to love till the string snapped
But what if we were never entwined
February crows perch on this January love
They say if you love someone let 'em go
And I was always out of his reach
He'd just
Take my hand. He promises to never let it go
Says "Trust me," but in my eyes, only if...
You could just
Hold this January heart
Slipped on the snow
How were he to know
Dropped dice in shock
I was the thirteen of failed romance and luck
February wind strikes his gaze down
I'm sorry I'm sorry
Maybe if I was like the rest
Maybe if I didn't imagine her face close to mine in every song
February crows perch on this January wanting
They say if you love someone let 'em go
But you were always out of my reach
One day if you'd just
You'd just
Take my hand. I promise I'll never let it go
Trust me, in my eyes only if
You'd just
Hold this January heart
This is for the person with a heart of glass, who carved a shield of brass
I'm sorry I was blind
To your midnight tears
To your mental arguments
I promise I see you today.
In case you were wondering about me while you lay
I'm not an amputee,
So you always have a shoulder to lean on if you want me
February doves perch on this January love
They said if you love someone let 'em go
But you were always holding my hand so
I'll just
Squeeze your hand. I promise I'll never let it go
Trust me, see in my eyes if
You'd just
You'd just...

- Dedicated to the girl I will always picture in a love song and the boy who gave his heart to someone in love with another
I won't apologize for disappearing for a week, because it was a well needed break, but here's a freestyle poem which is actually more in song format with a bridge, chorus, verses and all but I can't make sheet music so—it's a poem :3
