Maybe I was wrong

“I don’t like her much…”

Slips and falls frozen she cries

When black means danger

She’s hot to the touch

Burning my tender skin so

It drifts from her view

Deep into the lake

Of her melting purview she

Swims to me quickly

I rethink her breath

“Could I have been wrong to judge

Something like a breeze?”
