melt the atmosphere between us

the love note i never wrote
many a cold winter have melted into a summer so warm 
it could melt the atmosphere between us
we chose to season in time,with time
as strangers
who never once stood so close
once upon a time we stood so close
that no air could pass inbetween us
so close that if you were a winter
and i a summer
we could have given birth to a new life
Spring
like hurricane Catrina is, to a
beautiful island
we are left rumbled
apart
storm beaten
washed down in tears
blown apart
by strong winds of
of a sense of self
deeply rooted in us
to cater for the route each one of us wants to take
agains all odds
it doesnt matter if what each one of us wants blows roof tops off
does it?
the waves
we have created
swallow us into the deep
where life is a ringing bell heard in a faint whisper of deep sleep
we used to tone down my winters with your summers
and my summers with your winters
but now it seems
we have killed the spring between us
if isnowny icy chills rain on us
we blow them chills towards each other like workmen trying to make hell into a north pole
we haven taken the joint volcanic eruption that we created
that used to set us aflame for each other
that could not be put off with all the water in the world
and turned it into the burning flames of hell on earth
