In hindsight the truth pounds strong in my chest, ******* for bed the chill on the nape of my neck reminds me
I
             Lie
I never really undress--I haven't really since last time we shared our space and it feels a little like death that it's so cold now
And you were never really close to as cold as Winter
In fact I can still smile when I think of the warmth
I
             Left
                          Behind
Alaunus, at long last found and left behind

In hindsight the failure on my part to keep living the life started by two, reminds me why it feels
intensely wrong
To
             Lie
Awake feeling no heat
Tangled twisted in sheets
Winter coming on fast
             Lie
Awake and lonely
Watching the shadows move
Toward the sunrise

And you were never really close to as cold as Winter
In fact I can still smile when I think of the warmth
I
             Left
                          Behind
Alaunus, at long last found
And
             Left
                          Behind
