Frost Bite

The wind is getting too cold
for my hands that are too bare.
The frost bites into the skin,
like pins pricking through the numbness.
But I'll be willing to let  my hand
hold out as long as it needs.
As long as it takes
for you to close the space in between.
Until our hands meet
as I pull you out of the waters
and onto my side.
