The chill upon my body
It's quite uncomfortable
It feels like spikes upon my skin
Every shiver I feel colder
My lips feel dry
I long to feel the warmth
That beautiful warmth
That surrounds my skin
That takes the shivers away
That gives my skin a glow
Feels like home
Today is so cold
You want to wrap in a blanket
Sipping some hot coffee
reading a good book
that's the way
to spend the day
on a cold day like today
