I warn you, I'm blizzards by the dozen,
Each surface glassy ice and powder snow,
Frost, sleet, hail, and all else that is frozen,
Is all that I am, is all that I know.

It seems that she'd been with me since the bud,
With me before I existed at all,
She said she wanted love, she took my blood,
Her teeth in my vein, she drained all my soul.

Her breath is vanilla, part of her spell,
And I thought it would be mine to keep,
I gave her my heart, she took it as well,
Like slipping into cold eternal sleep.

Lips on mine drank my warmth, she's the hunter,
I'm all that she left me, I am winter.
One day, I was at school and I got the song Love Like Winter by AFI stuck in my head. I had forgotten to bring the earphones to my Ipod on that day so I couldn't listen to it and as a result that song stayed in my head and inspired me to write a poem.
