Marooned on a windy island, for too long.
Time locked in a freezing sunset, for an eternity.
Cutting through every breath, the unforgiving air.

Fluttered and unsettled, can I contain it My love?

They are both ofcourse, amongst other things, short, shy, soft-spoken and come with a 'cute till 80' warranty.
