u/Substantial-Road3945

Encased in a fifty-foot-thick glacier

I would be able to melt through

With vitality and vigor

The way my heart melts when I am with you.

 

The way I hang on to your goodbyes

Sweet, subtle, succulent

Just like a cotton candy cloud.

 

Not nutritious in the slightest

But eliciting such intense intoxication.

 

But

 

You were never meant to be mine

Thousands of miles behind.

 

The cloud has already been claimed

Calmly and cautiously

As one must with a construct so crisp.

 

I fear for the day

When the storm clouds roll

With its callous downpour

Melting this fragile fantasy away.
