Frostbite

Winter is coming. So very metaphoric. I have a lot of feelings about things like winter and the things it reminds me of. I've had a few wonderful winters - winters full of bright new adventures and having someone to miss. And I've had less wonderful winters. I'm trying not to be pessimistic about this one.




Frostbite    11/20/17


It all feels colder now,

And winter will come and go

With only a wall between me and my snowstorm. 

Love is frostbite, but I don’t want to wear gloves. 

Wandering out into the frozen grey

Leaves a bitter taste. 

I’ll stay inside and thaw awhile,

Watching and wishing through the window.
