Ankle Deep

I feel too much.
The ice breaks and I fall.
fast.
it's hard to digest that,
like a thirsty fish.
Does such a thing even exist?
How can I love what murders me?
How can you desire what suffocates thee?
Like a naked tree
in the winter,
it will pass
and we will stand
soldiers in the night.
This is not the end of me.
My roots are too deep for that.
