Cold

They say you get lonely

During the cold seasons

That you’ll slowly

Bring out the demons

The warm food

And old movies

Only do so much good

Till you remember the lack of beauty

The cold seeps through

The cracks of the walls and my heart

What was I to you

After it all

I sit by the fire

And see your eyes

See your smile

Hear your goodbyes

I know it’ll only feel this way

During the cold months

But that’s a lie

I don’t want to confront

Leaves, pumpkins

Christmas lights

Do you remember

Our last fight

The tears were running

Down my face

Everywhere I go

Is a you and I place

The cold seeps through

The cracks of the walls and my heart

What was I to you

After it all

I sit by the fire

And see your eyes

See your smile

Hear your goodbyes

I know it’ll only feel this way

During the cold months

But that’s a lie

I don’t want to confront

I sit by the fire

And see your eyes

See your smile

Hear your goodbyes

I know it’ll only feel this way

During the cold months

But that’s a lie

I don’t want to confront
