and a poem

Tonight i jumped
into the emptiness
of an unheated pool
i wondered if the cold
would kill me
or perhaps just
freeze my heart
rock hard
like yours
but the cold
did not kill me
it did not hurt
it was the slap
filled with life
ice and water
your signs
and mine
the water flowed
over me making me
stronger than before
and when done
when i climbed out
dripping with life
my heart beat
just as hot
as it was before
each beat pulsing
with the sound
of your name
