I am cold as ice
A subzero structure, a bone device
As hard as enamel
I'm mineralized, amalgamatized
As sharp and dense as any alloy devised
I am quiet here
I don't make a sound when I hear you near
I'm still and my heart slows
My temperature drops, I brace for the shock
Without blinking I sink at the shore on the rocks
I used to dream beautiful things, I used to brandish my imagination
Fall into sleep and see them
Take all I am and compact it into something that you understand
Someone that you can stand
I am calm as night
A firm concentration commands my sight
I'm fractured, I'm focused
I'm steady and true, and here without you
I am stable and balanced, divided in two
I am killed by this
The state that I'm in, I will soon dismiss
I'll cast it out from me
I only need time, with age I'll refine
I'm objectively broken but cool and confined
