Literature Text

When I come in from the cold,
Shivering and wanting
To hole up by the fireplace,
My fingers burn.
And it reminds me that
Sometimes
What I want most
Hurts.
(You)
Conceived while fencing. My fingers were burning, and as is my style I fence better when composing poetry or prose or even drawing in my head, so... This came out. It's short, but I like it like that.
