Juxtaposed

The wind blows the door open
Whisked easily from a hand in this cold
Huddle briskly inside, there’s warmth where we head
Brush my feet at the onset, take your coat, have a seat.

Trudged a few blocks, by a window we’ll sit
It almost pains me to stay so still
The cold can envelope such a blushing heat
I feel such a distance from you.

Flakes whirl ‘round my periphery
I’m only lost for a moment, transfixed yet again
You’ve got my attention, don’t worry
I am not forsaken.

Sitting strong, I’ll gaze heavily
At such delicate eyes only a reflection
Can portray, lost in the ice for a moment
I’ll delve deep someday.
