Crunching snow beneath my feet,
a foggy breath escapes my lips.
I wish to forget.
The air seems colder without you at my side.

You left me to freeze,
to struggle,
to shake and shiver until I was frostbitten

You left me in the snow with nothing

I thought this we could share
that this child was ours to share
but when i cried in the doctor’s office,
you showed no remorse

It was you

The reason I could never be happy in winter
The reason that every time I saw a child I wept
The reason I chose not to love anyone

I grew distant, straining to forget the past but the bruises remained
the love used to be there
you used to be there

but you left me in my own bitter winter
