Chapter 5 of 22

two [after her part one]

[brief daydreams about real people]

when i was fifteen, i wanted to go to iceland

iceland is cold

cold was my favorite weather

people go to iceland

and then leave

iceland was a place of trips and tourists

they take photos

swim in the lagoon

watch the sky

maybe they go surfing or biking

or hiking

but they never stay

they breathe the cold

and then they go home

back to warmth

but cold was my favorite weather

when i was sixteen, i met a girl

she was really cold

cold was my favorite weather

she was beautiful

people would love her

enjoy the cold

take their pictures

explore her

watch her grow

maybe they would go surfing or biking or hiking

but they never stayed

people made a trip of her

tourists of her life and her beauty

and her cold

they kissed her cold

and then went home to the warmth

when i was sixteen

i wanted to live in iceland

i wanted to stay with her

i never wanted to leave

i loved her cold

and never wanted to go home to warmth

cold was my favorite weather

she was my favorite storm
