The night was so
cold and eerie
that we were certain that something
wicked hovered in the air around us.
The icy feel of death and doom
lingered everywhere.

Upon learning this,
you and I rejoiced,
because we wouldn't have
it any other way.
There's nothing better than
cuddling up together
when the wind rages,
when there's darkness all around.
The only warmth and light
I need is that of
your dear love forevermore.
