There's little pieces of ice in the trees
and the branches whisper to me.
Half words that
fit together in my head
just like the trees want.
The wind sings, wrapping barely warm fingers
around my waist, cinching hard then soft,
wanting nothing more than to hear my heart beat.
The grass breaths, up and down, heaving, lowing,
gasping in the hush of days.
Passing with a sigh, no one knows but me.
No one touches lips to cool air
and tastes the breath,
like spider webs on my tongue, sharp and laced
down my throat. Dragging nets under my skin.
In me they find it too hot, pushing upwards, out.
There's ice up in the trees and silver in me.

 reports, 1d 5h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on.
