your hazel eyes
and beaming smile
make my day
a little better

i'm still breathing
and i can't tell
if that's good or bad.

i quietly beg for attention,
and it has to be from you.

you loved her when we were together.
your feelings for me slowly faded,
while i was still head over heels.
you chose her over me.

it trickles slowly
and melts quickly
after landing
on your warm body.

it feels toasty,
although it's close to freezing.
i think it's the nostalgia;
the feeling of winter.

it brings back memories
to building snowmen,
sledding with my family,
baking cookies,
and cuddling up near the fire.

after a year of torture,
it's finally christmas time.
