I skated out into the middle of the pond and waited for you.
I'm always the one left waiting.
I taste the distance between us in the frost floating on the breeze. Cold and hollow, like a November morning waiting for a bus. It itches at the skin and chaps lips. The cold grips everything like an unforgiving corset tightened to the breaking point. I'm not feeling this for the first time. My fingers are numb from brushing against the frozen skin of you.
Your taste will always be winter.
I knew the ice was too thin.
I was just waiting for it to break.
I never knew what your blue eyes held until that split second. I always had to guess because even when you smiled, your eyes ached of emptiness.
I saw Fear.
Was it fear for me or your own selfish sense of being left alone?
The water chills me like your stare. Blue eyes still glare at me below the surface. I always wanted to drown in those eyes. I wanted to drown in you. There are places in me you never dared to go. Your touch was always light, like you were afraid of unlocking something within yourself with every fingertip that brushed my skin.
Just reach for me.
All I need is your hand.
Take a chance just this once.
Instead I sink to the bottom of my heart and leave you on the surface.
And when I see you on the street the next day you'll be wearing the earrings I gave you for Christmas.
You should have been the one to drown.

Stevie, I know UM was a traumatic event for you, but you need to get back on the horse and post again. How about a funny post about why your ex left you?

Dammit. I just lost the Uber NFL pool. Stupid Tom Brady. Stupid Colts. ARG
-------------------------------
Sorry man, but I needed you to win and was rooting against you. I am convinced that is why the Colts came through.

Makes sense to me. Now just don't vote against me in UM and all will be forgiven. If not, I'm allowed to kick you in the nose with my skate.

this really helped to enhance the mood I was already in. I wouldn't really say that was a good thing though........It just means people should stay out my way for a few hours.

If this guy were you, I'd guess there'd be approximately 437 uberwimmenz more than willing to "make you some hot chocolate" or something.
