Cold

"Cold"

--------------

I can feel the cold

Just under my skin

As it’s always settled

No matter how much I try to lose it,

It’s still with me

Marking my way

The wind moves ahead of me,

Past me,

Leaving me steadily in its wake

I see leaves caught in its trail

And friends too

Speeding off into the distance

I wonder where I am

The cold and the chill I can never leave

The wind passing ahead, leaving my behind

Never leaving but always left standing

Where I’ve always stood

Maybe I can stay here for a while,

Soaking in the sunlight

And even if I can’t feel its rays

Perhaps it’s enough to say

That I know what warmth is.
