my bones are
a c h i n g
for no one
other than you.

my mouth is
a c  h i n g
to taste
your lips
once again.

my arms are
a c h i n g
to wrap
themselves
around you.

but my spine
clatters and shakes
due to your absence
and this unbearable
coldness you have
left behind,
and it surely feels
like this winter
will never end.
