[hometext] => It's something that I have felt often, and know that others have felt as well.
[bodytext] => When my expression freezes The only thing I give away Is that I don’t want to give something away My face freezes often I hold my steady gaze Eyes turn from blue to steel My face is like a statue It gives away no emotion I don’t like having to do it It is more instinct now I hear words stringed together Ones I do not want to hear And my mind goes off like a trigger My face freezes Water turns to ice when it is cold When words turn cold My face acts as ice It’s solid and unreadable Water has life, love, unpredictability Ice is rigid, steadfast, and tenacious There is a way to see past the steel Look for the blue in my eyes The water that lives beneath the ice It begs to be seen It wants the spring It wants the cool words to turn warm So that the ice melts I cannot make the ice melt Only you can You are my seasons But if you are indifferent It doesn’t matter if it is water or ice They are the same thing to you Made of the same elements Just in different states If you are indifferent Spill your cold words elsewhere I don’t care how you see me But I don’t like to freeze.
