Absolute Zero

Absolute Zero



I live in a frozen landscape.
I look around and see only ice sculptures
      of people,
            of places.
There is no movement in my heart.
There is no animation in my life.

It was your love that, sun-like,
      made the days dance
            made the nights warm
made my world alive.

Then, it was gone.

Snow covered the flowered fields
      of youthful abandon
            chilled by the arctic winds of loneliness.

I reach for your frozen beauty
and find only
      a memory
            an emptiness
                an ending.

Absolute zero is the lowest possible temperature where nothing could be colder, and no heat energy remains in a substance. Absolute zero is the point at which even molecules do not move.
