You see
a puff of warm breath
fleeing from his ice blue lips
She sees
a truth that he dares to tell
if anyone is willing
to look past his surface
You see
a weakness in his tears
as they turn to icicles dangling from
his ash blonde lashes
She sees
crystals of a past
that has never been told
She sees
a reflection in
those tiny blue droplets
a reflection of herself
and the pain she holds dear
She sees a man
with stars for eyes
holding within them the wonders
of our galaxies;
With hands that blanket her
in times of need and times of bliss;
With a heart of diamond
beautiful,
yet unbreakable.
