Frostbite

Drifting in the silence of the night,
I just want to reach out and grab you;
I’ll calm what is feral hold you tight; 

Ceiling fan spins as hard as I fight,
wide eyed witching hour’s nothing new;
Drifting in the silence of the night;

There’s reason to smile tears fall despite,
maybe it’s time to reveal what’s true;
I’ll calm what is feral hold you tight; 

Such restlessness in star light star bright,
your eyes change from purple to blue;
Drifting in the silence of the night;

A pin drop’s enough to bring frostbite,
is the hunter who’s stalking a clue? 
I’ll calm what is feral hold you tight; 

Please do not ask me to stay polite,
I see all you try to hide from view;
Drifting in the silence of the night,
I’ll calm what is feral hold you tight.
