On A Misty Cold Morning

On A Misty Cold Morning

I draw her in
A breath
On a misty cold morning
A breath
Fills the void in my chest
Runs with my blood
Reaches out to my heart
A breath
Cold in my chest
A breath
That keeps me calm

She runs through me
A shiver
On a misty cold morning
A shiver
Sparks from my heart
Runs with my blood
Reaches out to my arms
A shiver
I wrap around my body
A shiver
That keeps me warm

I miss her now
A wound
On a misty cold morning
A wound
As she longs to leave
Runs with my blood
Pierces my skin
A wound
That left a scar
A wound
That hurts no more

I stand here without her
Staring far into nothing
On this misty cold morning
Feel the scar itch against my skin
A shiver runs through my spine
In quick breaths of this biting air
I remember her last words
"You ... take care ..."
