In flight
I’m frigid like I’ve always been, long and thin ensures the consistent brink of hypothermia.
It’s curious how often I am entertained by the idea of hypothermia
melodramatic and big expressions
Numb toes and white knuckles
But can shitty blood flow really be why I’m such a frigid person? Why my soul is frosted breath and my heart is a glacier?
A lack of empathy or maybe a selfish tendency.
The ice on my tongue can only protect me
But still I thank the goddess
For his fire, his entropy
Wrap me in, surround me, consume me.
Thank God he feasts on me
Satin skin, fingertips outlining every word I wish I had said sooner
So melt.

i dont think it was intentional but i read these lines “but still i thank the goddess for his fire his entropy” as your goddess being trans or a feminine man and that thought made me extremely happy and i thank you for that!
‘So melt’ is such a fantastic ending to this amazing poem!
