Risk

I could feel your body,
It was frozen,
In frosty bays of the old city,

In a moment I decided to take the risk,
Warm you up,
Save you from the stormy hands of those cruel nights,
To be the fire place reminding you of good things that are still alive in corners of cold nights of fear,
To take away all your pains,
Be the candle light in those dark streets you have been lost,

To be myself…

Sad though
It wasn’t worth trying,

Can’t resist the heat;
You don’t belong to the loving, subtle, innocent warmth of the fireplace,
You belong to the freezing memories of icy glaciers that you carry along with yourself all these years from your origin,
and never grew up to learn from them...
