The wind tears at my cheeks
Salty tears trailing down
And warm breaths pouring out from my lips
As I run
Silently
Across the road
Dodging a speeding car
A honk pierces through my ears

I just want the noise to stop
My gloved hands are shoved over my ears
A futile attempt
To make the world stop

I sniffle and make my way down the sidewalk
Slowing down
I’m looking for her
My happiness
My sunshine
She is my mission
She can fix this

I stop at a door
Her door
Two knocks is all it takes
For her to come running

Her warm smile shines down on me
My breathing slows
Her soft warm hands rub my cold ***** cheeks
My tears are erased
Her gentle voice caresses at my ears
My anxiety finally lifted
Allowing me to be at peace with the world

The memory I once found so calming
Is like a tear in my heart

Life is so depressing without her
No more hugs
No more happiness
And no more her
The realization hits me
All too hard

I’m alone.
