She keeps looking up and says,
|
"The sky is assembling an army."
|
I hold her closer and push her hair out of her face.
|
"There's nothing to fear unless
|
they start shooting."
|
And I remember why this cold was worth your kisses.
|
|
"Don't you think it's a pretty night to watch your own breath?"
|
So I open my mouth and blow into the frost
|
to let out all the ghosts.
