The cold surrounds me

Sleeping alone in the cold without warmth by my side

The cold surrounds me

The space to my right, cold and empty

The cold surrounds me

Moving closer to the space on my right and leaving another cold gap to my left

The cold surrounds me

Thinking about the warmth that could one day fill that space

The warmth smothers me

Those thoughts fade away as I'm reminded of the cold that awaits me

The cold surrounds me

My heart being just as cold, guarded with walls knowing that warmth will never have me

The cold surrounds me again

Alone I remained and always been, as I shuddered in the cold

The cold forever surrounds me

I yearned for warmth but could never attain it for I was meant to be alone

I surrendered to the cold
