Offerings

Winter whisper.
Empty water walk.
Slipped on your lack of surprise
and dropped the name for courage at your feet.
Licked snow and blessings off your wings.
Made you shiver
when my fingers
tricked you into
wanting more.
Fell on fearless needs, knees
to swallow your convictions.
Broke my teeth on your...
sense of honor.
Bruised your future
with careless claws.
Danced at the edge of your flame
daring fate to burn my faith.
Watched my ashes paint the sky
in sacrifice.
